Greek Leek Pie Recipe (Phyllo Pie)

Prasa (leeks—in Greek: πρασόπιτα, pronounced: prah-SO-peetah) are favorites in all types of Greek cooking but are special favorites baked with cheese in phyllo (filo, fillo) dough. It's a nice variation of the classic, spanakopita. The leek pie recipe makes 6 large pieces, suitable for a main dish or snack, and can be cut into smaller pieces to use as appetizers or a side dish. Like all Greek phyllo pies, this is truly versatile! If you're new to working with phyllo dough, check the handling tips before beginning.

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds of leeks, just the white bottom stems, coarsely chopped
  • 1/3 pound salted butter, divided
  • 4 eggs
  • 3/4 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 pound of kefalograviera cheese, cut in small cubes
  • 1 teaspoon of kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon of freshly ground pepper
  • 2 rounded tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 pound phyllo sheets (thin, 20 to 24 sheets per pound), defrosted, at room temperature)
Prep Time:
35 minutes
Cook Time:
45 minutes
Total Time:
