In Slovenia most that we found were like very long spirals of layered filo pastry rolled from the centre. It's delicious. Lots of nice touristy handicrafts in that shop and the shopkeeper was very good at selling and very jolly. The cheese Byrek looked to be cooked a little more than the other one. Trilece is 3 milk cake.

    The name of the quiche like food is PISPILIT or SHAPKAT! It is made with cornmeal and greens like: spinach, leeks and other wild greens. These are mixed with feta cheese and eggs and the mixture is then pored over a thin layer of the polenta like cornmeal mixed with hot water and salt. After the filling then it is covered with another layer of the cornmeal and baked in the oven. I actually prefer this better then byrek as it is much less work as you do not have to roll the dough into paper thin sheets.

    You guys are awesome. The Albanians are the masters of the pies in the Balkans. Unfortunately we don't get credit for our foods that our neighbors share with us. If you go to Turkey, or if you search on RUclips the pie is called Arnavut Boregi, Albanian pie. We have so many varieties and styles like nowhere in the Balkans.
