Gently heat the water and milk until lukewarm, make sure it's not too hot. Dissolve the yeast in this mixture and let it sit for about 10 minutes until it starts to foam.
You can knead the dough with a stand mixer or by hand.
Mix the flour with salt and add about 4 tablespoons of olive oil. Slowly add the yeast mixture and knead until the dough is smooth and elastic.
This will take at least 5 minutes. Place the dough ball in a bowl and cover it with a warm, damp tea towel.
Let the dough rise for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius.
Divide the dough into four pieces and roll each one out into a long oval shape, about 4 mm thick.
Spread grated mozzarella on two of the pides, keeping about 2 cm free around the edges. Crumble the feta over the other two pides.
Fold the edges slightly inward and pinch the ends to close it. Use a little olive oil to help seal the dough.
Brush the edges with olive oil and bake the pides for about 20 minutes until golden brown. Garnish with fresh parsley if you like. Enjoy!
