For dough
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup warm water
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups flour
1 egg yolk, mixed with 1 tsp water, for glazing
3 tablespoons grated kashkaval (optional) or 3 tablespoons parmesan cheese (optional)
For filling
1 lb eggplant
4 ounces feta cheese
1 cup grated kashkaval, gruyere or 1 cup parmesan cheese
salt and pepper, as desired

1
Beat the oil with the water and salt and add just enough flour to make a soft malleable, oily dough.
2
Prick eggplants with a fork and turn under the broiler until they are soft inside.
3
Put into a colander and peel eggplants. Smash the flesh of the eggplant in the colander to release juices, press to drain them.
4
In a bowl, mix eggplant pulp with feta cheese and kashkaval, mix well.
5
Salt and pepper as desired.
6
Divide pastry into 2 balls, roll each one out thin and cut into 10-cm (4 inch) rounds. You will not need flour for rolling -- the dough does not stick.
7
Top each round with 1 heaping tablespoon of filling, fold round over and crimp edges.
8
Place pies on a baking sheet, brush with egg glaze mixture. Sprinkle with grated cheese if desired.
9
Bake 350F for 35 minutes or until lightly browned.
10
If desired, can make one large pie by rolling out 2 large crusts from dough. If doing so, add 2 beaten eggs to the filling.
