Recipe instructions

- Drain well on paper towels, then squeeze out as much of the remaining liquid as possible.
- Place in a large bowl and add the feta cheese, kefalotiri cheese, eggs, mint, and nutmeg.
- Stir well to combine.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Preheat an oven to 375 8F.
- Lightly butter a baking sheet.
- Cut the stack of phyllo sheets lengthwise into 3 equal strips.
- Remove 1 strip and cover the remaining phyllo with a slightly dampened kitchen towel to prevent it from drying out.
- Place the strip on a work surface and brush lightly with melted butter.
- Place another strip on top.
- Brush the second strip lightly with melted butter.
- Place a heaping teaspoonful of the filling about 1 inch in from the bottom of the strip.
- Fold the uncovered end over the filling on the diagonal to form a triangular shape.
- Bring the bottom of the triangle up against the straight edge.
- Continue folding in this manner until the tip of the strip is reached, forming a triangular pastry.
- Brush lightly with melted butter.
- Place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Repeat with the remaining phyllo and filling.
