Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Sauté the diced onion in olive oil. Add garlic and oregano.
  2. When the onion begins to brown, add the ground beef, salt and pepper. Cook only until lightly browned because it will finish in the oven.
  3. Butter a baking dish. Layer half the phyllo sheets 1 to 2 sheets at a time, brushing each layer with melted butter.
  4. Spread the beef filling evenly over the phyllo. Continue layering the remaining phyllo with butter.
  5. Before buttering the final layer, cut the assembled pie into portions. Combine any remaining butter with the eggs and milk and pour it evenly over the goulash.
  6. Bake at 400°F for 30 minutes, until golden and set.
