Albanian pies are generally made of thin pastry leaves which can be rolled out at home or bought as filo dough at a supermarket.

Albanian Spinach Pie (Byrek Me Spinaq or Pite)

Albanians love savory pies and I do too. They make theirs with filo dough. Any combination of greens can be used in this recipe. You can even add other vegetables as well, such as mushrooms. If the additional vegetables used will be watery, towards the end of baking you might want to cut steam vents in the filo dough. Albanians eat this pie hot accompanied by buttermilk or beaten yogurt thinned down with cold water, or with chilled stewed prunes.
