Ingredients
  

  • 15-18 Filo sheets*
  • Olive oil for brushing
  • 1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
  • 1/3 cup ricotta cheese or crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 clove garlic – minced
  • Sprinkling of dried Basil Leaves
  • Freshly ground black pepper to season
  • A handful of cherry tomatoes – halved
  • Sprinkles of Season with Spice's Aleppo Chili Pepper Flakes

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 355F.
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  • Gently roll out the filo sheets and cut into 4 1/2” x 7” sheets.
  • Lay one sheet on the parchment paper, and then grease it very lightly with olive oil. Place another sheet on top, and very lightly grease again. Continue stacking and greasing them one by one until all 15-18 sheets are used.
  • Fold all the edges in about half an inch to form a border crust.
  • Top with mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, herbs and garlic (and red chili flakes if using). Arrange cherry tomatoes on top. Sprinkle with black pepper and Aleppo Chili Pepper Flakes.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.

Notes

For the filo sheets, I used the standard 9” x 14” sheets, and cut them into half.  A 4 1/2” x 7” tart is a good size for a one person meal (enjoy it with a side of arugula salad).  Or a good size to share between three people as an appetizer.
