To make this Mediterranean Pastry with Olives and Feta, you will need the following ingredients:

- 1/2 cup chopped Kalamata olives
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste

To begin, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl, mix together the feta cheese, olives, parsley, dill, mint, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
Next, lay out a sheet of phyllo dough on a clean work surface and brush it lightly with olive oil. Repeat this process with 5 more sheets of phyllo dough, layering them on top of each other and brushing each layer with olive oil.

Bake the Mediterranean Pastry with Olives and Feta for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
