The sheet should come up above the top of the pan. oil it and then place the second filo above the first one. It should also come up above the top of the pan. Spread the mixture on top of the two sheets, fold over the bottom filo sheets and oil them. Place the third sheet on top of the mixture and oil it. Cover it with the fourth sheet. oil it and slice off any parts of the sheets that have remained. Score the top sheet with a knife into squares. Beat the remaining olive oil with some Sugar and 2 cups of the pumpkin juice that you have preserved and pour it over the pie. Spread it well over the surface of the pie. Bake in 200 C until the pie takes a rose colour.
