Pie with feta cheese and tomatoes
Description
I add dried basil to the dough, which makes it aromatic. You can use any cheese. Feta pairs perfectly with tomatoes. Sprinkle the finished pie with fresh herbs. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.

Step 5
Perhaps you'll need a little more or less flour. Judge by the readiness of the dough. It should come together well into a ball and not stick to your hands. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30–40 minutes.

You can make two small pies or one large one. I made two small ones. Roll out the dough into a circle directly on a sheet of parchment paper.

Step 8
Place the sliced tomatoes on top of the cheese. Fold the edges of the dough upwards. Arrange the sliced onion rings over the pie. Brush the entire top with olive oil. This is necessary to prevent the vegetables from drying out in the oven.

Sprinkle the pie with spices on top. I used ground pepper and dried basil. Place the pie in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about 30 minutes. Adjust the time according to your oven.
