Then, place a phyllo piece on the tablecloth, and by using your hands pull it carefully from all sides so it stretches and covers the whole table (be careful the phyllo piece does not rip).

Afterwards, roll up the phyllo by using your hands once or twice only from one side (so you create a spiral). Then, lift the tablecloth to an almost vertical position and leave the phyllo to roll itself.
Place the phyllo roll circle wise on an oiled up pan and repeat the same procedure with the rest of the phyllo pieces. Then by using a brush oil up the pie and bake it in a medially heated oven for about 45 minutes.
