The most outlandish dessert was a mass of honeyed phyllo, piled like feathers over diced pears and a blob of melted Pecorino cheese. |
The last day of our staycation I made a blueberry-cream cheese strudel, and had a few phyllo sheets leftover. |
This was followed by bay scallops wrapped in phyllo with Camembert, which were fabulously rich, and presented on a small rectangular plate. |
Fried cheese, octopus salad, spicy grilled meats, and dishes made with phyllo reflect different cultural influences. |
With no time to stuff and wrap the phyllo, I added a little more sour cream and a lot more cheese, spread the mixture in a pan and baked it. |
Traditional Greek foods are favorites of Greek Cypriots, such as baklava, made from phyllo pastry, nuts, honey and syrup. |
