    Ingredients
    1/2 pound (#4) phyllo, at room temperature
    4 oz (112g) butter, melted
    sesame seeds for garnish
    For the Filling:
    4 tablespoons (50g) butter
    4 tablespoons (50g) all-purpose flour
    2 cups (500ml) milk
    salt, to taste
    freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
    12 oz (350g) feta cheese
    1 egg
    Instructions
    Preheat the oven to 350 °F, 180 °C. Grease the inside of a 9-inch round pie pan
    Make the filling:
    Add the butter to a saucepan and melt over medium-heat. Add the flour, whisk together and and cook over medium- heat for 1-2 minutes until toasted.
    Add the milk, salt, and pepper, and whisk together. Cook until it comes to a boil and thickens enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon.
    Remove from the heat.
    Place the egg into a bowl and whisk to break it up. Add some of the hot cream mixture to the egg and whisk together. Add the egg mixture back to the pan and crumble the feta cheese into the sauce. Mix together and taste the cream. Adjust the seasoning if needed.
    Assemble the pie:
    Unwrap the phyllo sheets and unroll them. Take half of the phyllo sheets and roll them back up, wrap in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator up to 4 days for another recipe.
    Reserve 4 of the phyllo sheets for the top of the pie and layer the remaining sheets into the prepared pie making sure to drizzle each sheet with the melted butter.
    Pour the cheese fillinf into the center and top with the remaining 4 phyllo sheets. Drizzle butter between the layers.
    Gather all of the phyllo that is extended outside of the pan and tuck it into the sides. Score the top layers into 8 equal portions. Drizzle the remaining butter over the top and sides of the phyllo.
    Sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for about 45-55 minutes or until golden brown.
    Allow the pie to set and cool to room temperature. About an hour or longer. Serve with olives. Kali Orexi!
    Notes
    Freezer Instructions: The cheese pie can be assembled and wrapped tightly with foil and then with plastic wrap as to not absorb any freezer odors. It will keep fresh in the freezer for 2 months.
    Bake it frozen and covered with foil in a preheated 350 °F oven for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until golden brown.

    Our church in Sarasota Florida makes a sensational lamb shank dish for our annual festival and people wait a year to line up and order the dish. In preparation for this dish, the shanks are boiled first to release the bone impurities and much of the fat. After they boil for a while, the shanks are removed, and the liquid placed in huge stock pots and when cooled placed in the walk in frig. The fat is removed from the top of the stock once chilled, and the stock is then used in the sauce in lieu of water. The sauce is delicious, and I love the fact that the majority of fat is gone- lamb fat is one of the worse fats to ingest. This is more steps, and the meat falls off the bone after it's baked, but I will try this method with your recipe and let you know how it goes. Thanks for all of your wonderful videos.
