They are BACK!! Thank you @Aleksandar Taralezhkov

Ingredients
1 packet filo pastry (go to your local Eastern European / Turkish shop for the Og stuff. Mainstream Bulgarian brands are Bella and Familia. For this recipe you want thin filo. You can use the French brand from the big supermarkets, but sheets are smaller, so it’s more faff)
4 eggs
100g yogurt
100g feta
150g leek, chopped.
250g butter
Salt

26-30cm tall sides pan or cake form, or deep ovenproof pan lined with baking paper.

Method
Topping: Mix one egg, two tablespoons of yogurt and a pinch of salt. Set aside as you’ll use at the very end.
Filling: sauté the leek and getting it nice and soft in some 50g of butter. Salt to taste. Set aside to cool as you don’t want your eggs to cook when you mix in. Once cooled crumble the feta into the leek, add the remaining yogurt and finally the 3 eggs.
Preheat your oven to 180 fans.
Melt the remaining butter and butter up the pan you’ll be using. Open up the filo packet. You want to butter up generously with a brush or spoon then scatter a spoon or two of the filling on your filo. Then roll up 3 sheets into a filo sausage, not too tight but not too loose either, and coil up to create the central roll. It will be the beginning of your spiral 🌀. If it’s too tight it will break especially at this stage. No biggie if it does btw. Keep joining until you fill your entire tray. Any remaining butter can go around in the cracks.
Pour the egg and yogurt topping and bake for 45-55 min in the oven till golden. (Optionally sprinkle some sesame seeds on top if you’re feeling bouji)
Let cool for 10-15 min before taking out of the tin.
