You should try Bougatsa, it's a different recipe but basically tastes like Galaktoboureko served warm and with cinnamon. Bougatsa is a traditional, rustic Greek pie consisting of a phyllo pastry layered with a filling of minced meat, cheese, or semolina custard. The name of the dish is a derivation of the Ottoman word pogatsa, denoting a pie filled with cheese. Bougatsa has origins from the Byzantine period. Place back on a low heat and stir until the custard thickens.
