- ** See "Clarified Butter" recipe.
- Filling:In mixing bowl, combine Large eggs, Parmesan, ricotta, mint and pepper.
- Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 375 F.
- Cut phyllo pastry sheets in half crosswise and cover with waxed paper and a lightly dampened kitchen towel.
- Place 2 half sheets of phyllo, one on top of the other, horizontally on a work surface, trim off and throw away a 1 inch strip from 1 short edge of sheets.
- Pull top sheet toward you so which it overlaps bottom sheet by about 1 1/2 inches. Dot exposed surfaces with clarified butter.
- Place a 1/2 inch diameter dowel or possibly no. 11 knitting needle about 1 1/2 inches from long edge farthest from you. Fold edge over dowel.
- Spread about 1 tsp. of filling along edge of folded flap.
- Fold dowel over filling; then carefully roll up phyllo toward you, leaving 1 1/2 inch strip at bottom edge.
- Holding edges of the pastry at ends of dowel, gently press them toward center, forming pleats as you would on a curtain rod.
- (Don't worry if some filling oozes out.)
- Firmly holding ends of pastry to maintain pleats, carefully pull out dowel. Bring rolled edges of pastry around, forming a circle; the unrolled border will form bottom of each bird's nest.
- Transfer bird's nest to ungreased baking sheet. Brush all exposed surfaces of pastry generously with clarified butter. Bake till golden brown, about 15 min.
- Remove baking sheet from oven and place about 1 1/2 Tbsp. of Kasseri in center of each nest. Return to oven till cheese is bubbly. 3 to 4 min.
- Place an olive in center of each nest.
- Serve warm.
