This Greek recipe for a luscious meat-filled phyllo pie is one of the most beloved dishes of the Ionian island of Cephalonia. Three different ground meats, Greek cheese, and warm spices turn this phyllo classic into a rich, filling pie that can be served as easily as a Greek meze as it can a main course. Transfer the meat mixture to the pie dish and spread the meat evenly. Kimadopita comes from the words "kima" which means "minced meat" and "pita" which means "pie". Greek pies are usually made with commercial phyllo, homemade phyllo (which is a bit thicker), or puff pastry.
