Ingredients
1 pound (#4 or #7) phyllo pastry, thawed
6 oz (170g) butter, melted
1 and 1/3 pound (600g) ground beef
salt, to taste
freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
1 large onion, finely chopped
3-4 tablespoons olive oil
2-3 garlic cloves, grated
1 teaspoon dried thyme or oregano
5-6 scallions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
1 Serrano chili pepper or a jalapeo (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 F, 180 C.

Cook the onion with olive oil and a pinch of salt over medium heat until soft and golden. About 8 minutes.

Add the garlic and warm through until fragrant.

Add the ground beef to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat while breaking up the meat. About 10 minutes or until the beef is cooked through. Remove from the heat and add the thyme, parsley, scallions, and chili pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Mix together and set aside.

Cut the phyllo into 3 equal portions.

Layer two strips of phyllo on top of each other and drizzle melted butter in betwen the layers and on top.

Place a tablespoon of the filling on the bottom of the strip and fold up into a triangle. Place on a baking tray that has been greased.

Brush the tops of the beef pies with the melted butter and bake on the center rack of the preheated ovem for 45-60 minutes or until golden and crisp.

Serve with tzatziki sauce. Kali Orexi!
