BOUGATSA TIS TEBELAS (LAZY WOMAN'S CUSTARD PASTRY)

Bougatsa Tis Tebelas (Lazy Woman's Custard Pastry) image

Bougatsa is a custard-filled pastry popular throughout Greece. It is a semolina-based custard layered in-between sheets of flaky, buttery filo. This version is the 'lazy woman's' (homecooking in Greece is nearly always cooked by mom) because it cuts out the need to make a custard. Instead, a sweet milk/egg mixture is poured over baked filo sheets and baked further until the milk soaks the bottom layer of filo pastry, turning it dough-like and achieving a kind of 'custard'. The whole is served sprinkled with icing sugar and dusted liberally with cinnamon. We love it.

Time 1h25m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 lb phyllo pastry, thawed
10 ounces butter (you can get away with 8 oz if you absolutely have to)
1 (14 ounce) can condensed milk
hot water (enough to measure out 2 1/2 times the volume of the can of condensed milk)
8 ounces milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 lemon, zest of
3 extra-large eggs (4 regular)
icing sugar
cinnamon

Steps:

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Once melted, continue to heat it another few minutes (anywhere from 4-5) until it turns a dark amber colour and becomes very fragrant (this is called beurre noisette). Immediately remove from heat.
Preheat oven to 375F (190C).
With your browned butter, generously butter first sheet of filo pastry, then, scrunch up the pastry as if you were making a paper fan (beauty is unimportant, but that is the overall shape you want to achieve - you should be able to do this quickly, no more than 30 seconds per sheet of filo). Lay buttered filo fan down lengthwise in an 18 X 10 inch baking pan. Continue the same way with the remaining sheets of filo, until you have completely filled your pan. If there are any gaps, fill these with your last sheets of buttered filo, torn to accommodate gaps. Pour any browned butter that may be left, over the pastry.
Bake pastry in preheated oven until a dark, golden-brown colour, about 25-30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, empty condensed milk and 2 1/2 times its container of hot water. Add milk, vanilla and lemon zest. Whisk to blend and add the eggs, whisking to blend. (It is important to add the eggs AFTER the addition of cold milk as the milk will cool off the hot water somewhat, so the eggs don't curdle).
Pour the milk mixture over the filo pastry and continue to bake for another 45 minutes.
The pastry is done when it appears quite 'set' when pressed upon gently - ie. no liquidy custard appears.
Cut into 4 strips lengthwise and 4 strips crosswise, producing 16 pieces.
Liberally sift icing sugar over pan and be generous with the cinnamon!
You can serve this hot, warm or at room temperature.

FILO ROLLS FILLED WITH CREAMY CUSTARD (SWEET BOUGATSA)

Filo Rolls Filled with Creamy Custard (Sweet Bougatsa) image

A traditional Greek dessert made with crispy filo pastry and a delicious orange custard.

Provided by Marilena Leavitt

Categories Dessert/Breakfast

Time 1h15m

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

For the Filo Rolls:
4 cups whole milk (I use 2%)
--- zest of one medium orange
¼ cup butter
⅔ cup fine semolina
⅔ cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract (or vanilla paste)
2 lrg. eggs
2 lrg. egg yolks
1 lb. filo dough, defrosted overnight (I use Organic Fillo Factory)
--- --- melted butter (for brushing on the filo)
For the Topping:
--- --- Confectioner's sugar
--- --- ground cinnamon

Steps:

Warm the milk in a saucepan and add the orange zest. Bring to a simmer and set aside.
Melt the butter in a medium pot. Stir in the semolina and mix with a wooden spoon until fragrant and lightly toasted, about 5 minutes. Gradually add the orange-infused hot milk, mixing well until thoroughly blended. Next, add the sugar and stir well until the mixture is slightly thickened. Stir in the vanilla and remove from the heat. Off heat, stir the mixture occasionally to keep the custard from forming a skin. Allow the custard to cool slightly.
Beat the eggs and egg yolks in a mixing bowl. Add to the pot and mix well to combine - the mixture should have the consistency of a pudding. Cover well with plastic wrap and set the mixture aside until ready to use (at this point you can refrigerate it for up to four days for later use).
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Open the box of filo and unwrap the sheets. Place on a work surface and cut the whole stack of filo sheets in half so that you are left with rectangular pieces, which measure approximately 9 x 13 inches.
Lay 3 sheets of filo one on top of each other, brushing melted butter between each sheet. As you lay the sheets down, keep the shorter end facing you. Then, place about ⅓ cup of the custard mixture in the bottom center of the filo stack, approximately 1.5" from the edges. Fold the bottom edge of the filo over the custard and then fold in each of the sides, so the custard is fully covered by the filo. Flip the filo and custard over and away from you and brush the top with a little melted butter. Continue folding the strip of filo until you reach the end of your rectangle. At this point, tuck the end piece under the rest of the rolled filo and brush the top with butter. With the help of a spatula, transfer the filo roll to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat until you have filled as many rolls as you want.
Bake in middle rack of the oven for approximately 12-15 minutes or until light, golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly on a baking rack. Dust with cinnamon and powdered sugar and enjoy while still a little warm.
