Albanian Courgette Pie Recipes

ALBANIAN COURGETTE PIE

Albanian Courgette Pie image

LAKROR ME KUNGULL: The pumpkin (Kungull) family is a large family and have many vegetables included into it. We have two main ones that we make into pies in our village - this recipe is for Kungull i vogel Lakror which translates to a courgette pie. Then, more common in the summer is Kungull i madh Lakror which is Squash or Pumpkin pie. The Lakror me Kungull recipes have different names and can be made in two different ways. If you make the recipe with eggs and flour like this recipe then it is known as a Lakror. If you make the recipe with filo pastry (like my spinach pie recipe) then it is known as a Pite (or in some cases even byrek). The 'i vogel' and 'e madh' refer to a small or large pumpkin vegetable - courgette vs squash for example. Well, hopefully all this pie talk has got your ready for my recipe!

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

6 grated courgettes
2 eggs
300 g flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

In a mixing bowl mix together the grated courgettes, sugar, eggs and baking soda. Add the flour and continue to mix, you are looking for a thick sticky mixture.
In a large round baking tray (about 2 inches deep) rub some olive oil over the base and edges.
Scoop the mixture onto the tray and spread out evenly, then pour a small amount of olive oil onto you hand and rub it in circles gently over the top of the mixture. This should flatten it and leave it with a slightly shiny glossing.
Bake in the oven for 40 minutes on 180 degrees - the top should be a golden brown once cooked.

ALBANIAN SPINACH PIE (BYREK ME SPINAQ OR PITE)

Albanian Spinach Pie (Byrek Me Spinaq or Pite) image

Albanians love savory pies and I do too. They make theirs with filo dough. Any combination of greens can be used in this recipe. You can even add other vegetables as well, such as mushrooms. If the additional vegetables used will be watery, towards the end of baking you might want to cut steam vents in the filo dough. Albanians eat this pie hot accompanied by buttermilk or beaten yogurt thinned down with cold water, or with chilled stewed prunes.

Categories Savory Pies

Time 1h

Yield 1 pie, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

3/4 cup oil, preferably olive oil
30 sheets phyllo dough
1 1/2 lbs spinach, chopped
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup green onion, chopped
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

(NOTE: A round cake or pie pan is recommended because it's more authentic but any similar sized pan will do).
Brush the pan with some of the oil, and start laying the filo leaves inside. First, lay two leaves, sprinkle or brush with oil, then lay two other leaves, and repeat the procedure until HALF of the leaves are laid. Make sure that they cover the pan by hanging them about one inch over the edges of the pan. Change directions, so that the entire pan is evenly covered.
Sprinkle spinach with salt, then mix well by hand. Let sit for a minute.
Add the feta cheese, onions, eggs and stir.
Spread spinach mixture over the filo leaves in the pan.
Cover the spinach with the rest of the pastry leaves repeating the first-half procedure.
Roll the hanging edges of the bottom leaves over the pie (think of a pizza crust), sprinkle top with oil.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve hot.
