Zucchini-feta/white cheese tart

Zucchini-feta/white cheese tart

Fyllo pastry:
5 cups of flour,
2 teaspoons of baking powder,
1 1/2 cup of olive or corn oil,
1 cup of water or fresh orange juice,
1 teaspoon of salt.
Making of the pastry:
In a basin, we mix the dry ingredients first and then we add the liquid till it has all become one. This pastry does not actually need kneading. When all liquid has been absorbed we let the pastry rest for about 30 minutes.

Filling:
4-5 pcs of zucchini cut in cubes,
2-3 pcs of spring onions finely chopped,
2 soupspoons of anise finely chopped,
2 soupospoons of parsley finely chopped,
Some spearmint or basil, fresh or dry,
250 gr. feta cheese cut in cubes,
3 eggs,
A little salt (the feta/white cheese already has),
A little pepper.
Making of the filling:
In a skillet, using a dash of olive we simmer the zucchini, the spring onions, the anise and the parsley till zucchini is soft enough. We let it aside to cool a bit. Meanwhile, in a basin we have beaten the eggs adding the feta cheese cubes, the spearmint or the basil, the pepper and the salt. When the zucchini mix has cooled enough we add it in the egg/feta cheese mix and we stir carefully till the egg mix has covered all.  We get a tartpan and using our palms and fingers (we do not need stick for the pastry) we cover the bottom and sides making sure all has been smoothly covered. We add the filling we have ready and bake in a 180 degrees Celsius oven for 40 minuntes approximately.

ps1: We cut when it has cooled enough so that the filling can stand better.
ps2: There is no need to butter the tartpan as the pastry does contain oil.
ps3: This pastry can be stored in deep freezer too, so if the quantity we have made is bigger, we simply put the quantity we have not used in the deep freezer for some other time.
