A Snail Shape Fillo Pie with Olives and Cheese is a savory, spiral-shaped Greek pastry that combines a flaky phyllo crust with a rich, tangy filling. It is also known as “eliopites” (olive pies) or “kichi,” a specialty from the Kozani region.

Taste and texture

Crispy and flaky exterior: Layers of paper-thin phyllo dough are brushed with olive oil or butter and rolled into a tight spiral, which bakes to a golden-brown, extra-crispy finish.
Savory and tangy filling: The inside is filled with a flavorful mixture of creamy and salty cheeses, such as feta, ricotta, and sometimes grated Gruyère, along with chopped black or Kalamata olives.
Aromatic herbs: Fresh herbs like dill, mint, or parsley are often added to enhance the flavor, complementing the briny olives and tangy cheese.
Rich and comforting: The contrast between the crunchy pastry and the warm, gooey filling creates a delightful and satisfying experience.

Serving suggestions

Appetizer or snack: This pie is perfect served warm as an appetizer or a portable snack.
Part of a larger meal: It can be enjoyed as a side dish alongside a fresh green salad.
Perfect for sharing: Its impressive spiral shape makes it an excellent addition to a mezze platter or a party buffet.
