Greek Leek Pie - Prasopita

Often thought of as a British dish, this pie tastes delicious with feta cheese and philo pastry.
Don't use the dark green part in the cooking of this recipe, unless you want a stronger flavour.

Leeks are of the onion/garlic family and the reason for cutting them down the middle and rinsing the insides is to rid them of dirt.
