- 2/3 cup extra virgin Greek olive oil
- 5 large onions cut into large pieces
- 4 medium firm, ripe tomatoes, grated
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 ½ cup walnuts coarsely chopped

Instructions
- Heat 1/3 cup olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and sauté the onions, stirring until wilted and translucent, for about 7-8 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and simmer until all liquids are absorbed. Add salt and pepper and mix in the walnuts.
- Preheat oven to 375F / 190 C. Lightly oil an ovenproof dish.
- Layer 4-6 phyllo sheets on the bottom of the pan, letting the edges push up the sides of the pan. Lightly brush each sheet with oil. Spread the filling evenly on the sheets, leaving a border of around 2.5 cm. around the pan. Top with 4-5 more phyllo sheets, brushing each with oil as well.
