Nigella Lawson served up a delicious pie known as a old rag pie on today’s episode of Simply Nigella.

Nigella says: “Old Rag Pie is not the most glamorous name for something which, while being incredibly simple to make, will have you, and anyone who eats it, in raptures. The name is the English translation for the Greek Patsavouropita, created by bakeries as a way of using up old scraps of filo pastry: the “old rags” indicated by the title.

In Greece, there are two variants, one sweet, one savoury, but this version merges the two, adding honey to salty feta, to create what I can best describe (in taste terms) as a Greek cheesecake.”

Ingredients are: 100g soft unsalted butter, 1 x 270g packet frozen filo pastry, thawed, 200-250g feta cheese, 2 tsp grated Parmesan (or alternative vegetarian hard cheese), 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves or 1 tsp dried, 2 large free-range eggs, 150ml full-fat milk, 1 tbsp sesame seeds and 1 jar good-quality clear honey (such as Greek thyme honey or orange blossom honey).
