The filling: Grate the courgettes, add a little salt and squeeze them well, to get rid of liquids. Chop all vegetables and put in a bowl. Add courgettes, spices, cheeses, and pepper. Add salt, if necessary. Sprinkle a little flour on the table and spread the fyllo. Cut each fyllo in 2 long stripes. Put the filling in the middle and roll over, to form a “snail”.
