Simple egg pie
Pies
Layers of filo pastry soaked in egg mixture then baked to golden perfection make this simple egg pie. This egg pie (jajara – /yaya-ra/) recipe has been handed down through generations. It is so simple that I doubt it is my home country’s heirloom, but ask any grandmother and she’ll beg to differ. Funny, when I say ‘grandmother’ I think of someone who is close to a century-old, and not me who also has grandkids. <br />Those grandmothers will tell you how valuable this egg pie recipe is. It fed their large families when means were sparse. Nowadays egg pie is not made out of necessity but of nostalgia.
