Pie Recipes: savory feta and leek pie

This feta and leek pie will either bring some Mediterranean memories or provide savory goodness with simple and inexpensive ingredients.

This is a staple Sunday lunch at my parents, especially during the summer. It’s so delicious that I can’t even begin to think about it.

Usually, the key delicious component here is the dough type. For the case of this recipe, we are using the tastiest is the pastry dough. The later is extremely versatile and easy to handle.

Some of the key comments that you should take with you:

1. pastry dough gets warm fast – so keep it in the fridge till before you start forming everything up.
2. the general approach is that you use pastry dough can be filled with almost everything savory or sweet that you can think of. We have added some other savory pie recipes for your general ideas such as a spinach and feta pie or tomato pie. They are all interesting and have their own approach.
3. You can approach it as a simple pocket or a general big pie depending on the specific pan that you will be using.

Having said that, there is a big basic recommendation to be taken into account when it comes to savory pies. The filling has to be properly savory, interesting, spiced up properly. For example, we are using freshly ground black pepper on the leek and feta pie. The reasoning behind is that the pepper, even after baking is always there, part of everything.
