Friday's food -weekend's joy!


Macaroni pie (serves 10), a traditional recipe that my grandma used to make and now my mom does and hopefully one day I will! This time I only took the pictures and enjoyed its full taste with the rest of the family!
  • ingredients:
250gr of pasta made from durum wheat semolina
2 cups fresh milk
7 whole eggs
2 cups feta cheese

1 cup ricotta cheese

1 cup parmezan cheese
1 pack of french pastry
2 spoons of unsalted butter
3 spoons of virgin olive oil and fresh gound pepper
  • execution: Bring to boil a large pot of water and add the pasta with a pinch of salt. Let it shimmer for 13 minutes and drain afterwards under cold water. In a large bowl beat the eggs for a minute or so.Add the pasta and crumble all different kinds of cheese on top. Continue by adding the milk and the olive oil with one spoon of the butter. Don't forget to add pepper to suit your taste! Mix all the ingredients together. Preheat the oven at 250C. Use a big round baking tray and cover all surfaces with the remaining butter. Lay one sheet of french pastry on the bottom of the tray and make sure that the edges of the sheet fold on the sides up. Transfer the mixture on the tray and cover with the other sheet by overlapping the edges. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden at 250C and then cover with some baking sheet and let it bake for another 20 minutes at 180C. Use a fork to pinch, when ready the fork will come out dry!
