Serbian Cheese Pie - Mark Doffman

Ingredients:
500g Puff Pastry
200g Feta cheese, crumbled
250g Cottage Cheese
50g Cheddar Cheese, grated
4 large eggs
Pepper

Method:
Pastry:
Roll out 2/3 of the pastry and line a baking tin (10" x 7" x 2" works) with the pastry just overlapping the rim of the tin.
(No need to grease the tin, but you can line it with foil if you wanna). Keep 1/3 of pastry back and roll it out to a size that covers the tin.
Mixture:
Beat eggs and then add the 3 cheeses and mix everything well. Add pepper to taste.
Pour the mixture into the pastry base. Then cover with the remaining 1/3 of pastry and fold the edges of the pastry base in with the pastry top.

Put in the middle of the oven. Gas mark 7 for 10 min. and then Gas mark 6 for a further 30-40 minutes. Pastry should be golden brown when you take it out.

Serve with tomato and onion salad. Book a dep, take the phone off the hook, open bottle of red wine and enjoy.

You can add cooked spinach to the cheese mixture for a bit of a change!
