Step:
Using a little bit of sugar, powder the mastic grains in a food processor or use a mortar and pestle.
Combine all the ingredients for the filling and let them stand.
Knead the pastry making sure that the margarine is well incorporated into the flour.
Roll out the dough, relatively thin (but not too much because it has to hold the filling).
Cut the pastry into round pieces of about 8cm diameter.
Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each round piece and pinch the edges so that you make a small tartlet with "pleats" (look at the notes).
Place them in a baking tray and in the oven at 175 degrees, only with the bottom radiant element on for 20 minutes and then on both radiant elements for 10-20 minutes until they brown.
Ingredients
For the filling
2 kg unsalted mitzithra (you can also use Cretan anthotyro)
2 kg sugar
5 mastic grains
3 eggs
1/4 self raising flour
For the pastry
1 kg all purpose flour
3 tbsp margarine
1 little bit of salt
warm water as much as it takes to roll out the dough
