Greek filo or fyllo dough for pies

Image
Have you ever tasted spanakopita or spanakotyropita ? Oh my... I have given the recipe long time ago in this blog but using ready made filo. I have never given the recipe for a homemade "filo" , the basic ingredient and this is outrageous for someone who comes from Thessaly , the region for traditional greek pies! I will try to remediate today by dedicating this recipe to my mum , the best ever cooker who abandoned school very early to cook for her family that worked to the fields and who knows how to "open" the thinner ever possible filo. Sorry mum, I cannot compete with you, at least I try :) Prepare though for quite some work, my moto "simple but delicious" is true only at half ! Attention : You will need a special wooden rounded stick or anything equivalent. P.S : I have added some heavy cream in the filling of the original recipe today.
