Description
Delicious baked goods for the whole family. The name of this pie translates as “custard wrapped in phyllo.” We will be making an upside‑down dessert. Semolina is a type of semolina grain; it is finer than regular semolina. The semolina we are used to may be slightly noticeable in the finished bake. Fold and roll the dough not too tightly, otherwise it won’t bake through. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
