Ingredients
Method
In large skillet, melt 2 tbsp of the butter over medium heat. Add leeks; cook, stirring often, for 6 minutes. Transfer to large bowl. In same skillet, melt 2 tbsp of the remaining butter. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, for 6 minutes. Add cashews and wine; cook until wine has almost completely evaporated, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl with leeks. Stir in blue cheese, ricotta, cream, parsley, dill, nutmeg and egg, mixing well. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease 9- or 10-inch pie plate with removable bottom. Melt remaining butter in microwave. On work surface, unroll phyllo sheets; cover with clean damp tea towel to prevent drying out. Brush one phyllo sheet with melted butter and place in prepared pie plate, letting excess hang over edge. Repeat with seven phyllo sheets, rotating each slightly so corners don’t overlap.
Spread reserved mushroom filling over phyllo, smoothing top. Fold excess phyllo dough over filling, one sheet at a time, to achieve draped effect (if necessary, brush last sheet of phyllo with butter, crumple and place in centre of filling to cover trim).
Bake 30 minutes (if necessary, cover phyllo with foil to prevent browning). Let stand for 10 minutes before unmolding and cutting into wedges.
