Recipe Ingredients

1 pack SPAR Freshline white pita bread, cut into quarters
2 rounds SPAR Feta Cheese, cubed or crumbled
250 ml black olive slices (+-125g – usually obtainable at the Deli Counter as a loose-serve item)
6 - 8 slices salami (off large diameter roll), roughly chopped
375 ml SPAR Double Cream Plain Yoghurt
250 ml SPAR milk
3 large SPAR eggs
ground pepper to taste
Good handful of chopped fresh oregano

Lightly grease a fairly shallow, medium-size oven dish.
Place half the pita bread, feta, olives and salami in the dish. Repeat this procedure to make a second layer.
Lightly whisk the yoghurt and milk together. Season with pepper and stir in the chopped oreganum. Pour ¾ of this mixture gently over the layered ingredients to almost fill the dish. Cover and set aside for 30 minutes while the oven pre-heats to 190° C. Beat the eggs into the remaining milk/yoghurt mixture and gently pour this over, to fill the dish.
Bake for 35 minutes until firm and browned on top. Serve warm.

Do not add salt out of habit. We have intentionally left it out as there is sufficient salt from the feta and salami.
