4. Place one sheet of phyllo pastry onto your prepared baking tray  then lightly brush with melted butter. Place the next sheet of pastry onto the melted butter brushed pastry sheet. Repeat the brushing of butter and placing of the next pastry sheet  until you have used the 6 sheets of phyllo.  Place the last pastry down but don’t brush the final sheet with butter.
