Prassopita (Leek & Cheese Pie)

Buy our delicious Prassopita, available baked or frozen in Manchester and frozen for mainland UK delivery.

Prassópita is one of the classic Greek filo pies, made primarily with leeks and feta cheese.

With our base in Britain, we have access to stunning leeks all-year-round. This allows us to highlight them in a minimal, yet delicious filling for this tasty pie.

"Your mouth and taste buds are really satisfied. Every bite leaves you with flavours, texture, and healthy goodness." - Viktoria

This prassopita is made the traditional way, with layered handmade filo pastry sheets, all around a nourishing filling, in a big round pie. Leeks and spring onions are sautéed slowly in extra virgin olive oil, until tender and sweet. Freshly ground nutmeg is added off-heat, followed by free-range eggs, crumbled feta and a bit of pecorino cheese in the vegetarian version.

The phyllo is made with a flour blend that contains wholemeal organic flours and is fermented for at least 16 hours with our trusty sourdough starter, which makes it tastier and more digestible. It is then rolled out by hand in thin sheets.

When frozen, our pies are delivered packed in a pouch insulated with natural sheep's wool. Ice packs ensure chilled transportation until delivery the next day (Tuesday to Friday).

We are using Woolcool's environmentally friendly food pouches, which not only ensure great transportation of our chilled products to you but also don't harm our planet, as they can be recycled or reused (apart from the cling film enveloping the pie).

Chilled delivery incurs a £5 surcharge per 2 pies due to the special packaging.
