Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (170C).
- Put the zucchini, potato and onion into a deep bowl and sprinkle with 1/2 cup flour, salt and pepper to taste (careful! the cheese will have lots of salt don't use too much), all the grated cheese, mint, garlic, olive oil, and toss to coat all slices.
- Pour this mixture into a greased (olive oil) 13 X 9" pyrex baking dish (this doesn't have to be pretty- it won't show much when baked and sliced- taste is everything!).
- Press down with palms of hands to compact somewhat. Carefully pour 1/4 cup water over top.
- Bake for about 1 hour and 20 minutes. (if boureki appears to be too dry during baking, you can add up to 1/4 cup more water - but careful, the zucchini and potatoes will also release liquid during baking).
- Allow to cool 15 minutes before cutting into.
BOUREKI
Posted in honor of Ev's visit to Crete. From Mrs. Kristalia Psoma of the Exantas restaurant in Crete. I had no mizithra so crumbled 1/2 pound of sheep feta and cut up well-aged queso into cubes. The cheeses went into the food processor and after they were ground well, I added just enough heavy cream to bind them together. It worked great, not only as a binder but added the richness of the cream and moderated the "bite" of the cheese. Don't use the mainland, northern Greek version of mizithra. It's too dry, low in fats, and will not blend into the dish.

Middle-Eastern style puff pastry pockets filled with cheese. Great served as an appetizer or the traditional Israeli way for breakfast with salad, olives, cheese, and plain yogurt. Could also be filled with leftover mashed potatoes, or a spinach and feta mixture.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
- Beat 1 egg in a medium bowl, and mix in the cheese. Season with parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- On a lightly floured surface, cut each sheet of puff pastry into 6 equal squares to give 12 squares in total. Beat the remaining egg with water in small bowl. Brush edges of each square lightly with egg wash. Place a heaping tablespoon of the cheese mixture in the center of each square. Fold pastry over the filling, and seal edges with a fork. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, brush with remaining egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve immediately.
