Serves 4:
6 sheets (#4) phyllo pastry, thawed at room temperature
5 tablespoons granulated sugar
4 ounces (115 grams) unsalted butter, melted
150 grams full fat ricotta cheese
140 grams feta cheese, Dodonis brand is ideal if you can find it
1 large egg
3 tablespoons (40 grams) fine semolina flour
½ cup whole milk
Granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for topping
Preheat the oven to 350 °F, 180 °C.
Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Mash the feta cheese in a fork and mix with the ricotta cheese until well combined.
Beat the egg with the milk and semolina flour until well combined.
Add the egg mixture to the cheese mixture and mix until combined.
Place one sheet of phyllo on the tray lined with parchment paper. Drizzle some melted butter over it and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar over top.
Place the second sheet of phyllo on top, drizzle with some butter and sprinkle with sugar. Continue these steps with 3 more sheets of phyllo.
Drizzle some butter over half of the final sheet of phyllo and fold it over in half. Drizzle some more butter over it and fold it again. Place this package in the center of the prepared phyllo sheets in the baking tray.
Pour all of the cheese filling over the prepared phyllo package in the center of the tray. Fold the sides over to keep the filling from spilling out. Fold the other 2 sides over the filling to create a rectangular looking package. Carefully flip it over.
Brush all over with the remaining butter.
Bake in the center rack of the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until golden.
Cut into small pieces and sprinkle a generous amount of granulated sugar over top. Dust with ground cinnamon. Serve.

Oh my gosh, I had this in Crete nearly 40 yrs ago. Bringing back good memoriea
My mum grew up in Souda, Crete but I’ve never tried Bougatsa so can’t wait to make it and you make everything look so easy.
Bravo Dimitra! Κρατάς τις γεύσεις του τόπου σου τόσο μακριά, μπράβο σου!
I made today and it is so AMAZING! I used feta from Vermont, not as salty as Dodonia feta. My family died for it! Great presentation Demitra!
Yum!! It tastes so authentic. Thank you for the recipe 😘
Oh thank you thank you for a recipe for Bougatsa . Hope I can make it like you! Beautiful!
Thanks Dimetra for another simple but delicious recipe.
Finally!! I was trying to find your recipe for Bougatsa! I knew you had to have one...whew ..making it now 😋😋🦋
Another winner!❤️👏
My wife and I had Bougatsa in Chania on our honeymoon and absolutely loved it. Yesterday was our 2 year anniversary and I surprised her with your recipe and she was so excited she cried! Thank you so much for this recipe and for the creative alternative to mizitra making it easy to find all the ingredients:)
I'm so glad that you gave this recipe a try and that it brought you back to such a special time. Hope you get to visit Chania again one day :)
I found your page today and binge-watched way too many of your recipe videos! And I just found out your cafe is 20 minutes from where I live! Definitely making a visit out there this week to try some of these awesome recipes in person.
Looks amazing
Love this! My husband is from Hania also and actually graduated with the owner of the Bougatsa place you’re talking about. I will definitely try your recipe! Ευχαριστώ πολύ κοπελια.
How cool!! I love that place and can't wait to go agin this summer. All the best :)
Another delicious creation from my favorite Greek chef. You make it look so easy and makes me think I can do it too! I wish you would adopt me! 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
You mentioned Kritikia bougatsa apo Chania and I knew you had the recipe I was looking for. Thanks for posting.
You don't have to apply so much sugar to enjoy it.
Unbelievable recipe!!!
In Montreal, we have everything, even 3inomizithra!
I've found all the hard-to-find cheeses you mention available on Amazon btw.
Great recipient!
You are from Chania You have to show boureko and other recipes What other recipes are typical for Chania?
Γεια σου Δήμητρα με τις συνταγές σου.
Konstantinos Kosta γεια σου και να είσαι πάντα καλά.
Just like chania
Omg! Just was talking about this today
Méditerranéan Foods on Astoria, queens , NYC. has that cheese.
💐
What was the name of the Greek cheese that you can sub for feta and ricotta?
Diane White xinomizithra. Translates to sour mizithra cheese from Crete. It’s very hard to find.
Dimitra's Dishes we have a few Greek importers here in Pittsburgh. I'd love to see if they have it.
I cannot find Samonila, what can I substitute with?
Cornstarch will work :)
@@DimitrasDishes thank you 🙂
