Filling and Pastry

Method

Preparation and Baking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool. Once cooled, mix in crumbled feta, dill, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Phyllo

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). On a clean surface, lay out a sheet of phyllo pastry. Brush lightly with olive oil. Repeat this process with 4-5 sheets of phyllo, stacking them on top of each other.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Spanakopita

    Spoon the spinach filling along one edge of the stacked phyllo sheets. Fold the sides over and roll the pastry tightly to form a log. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the top with the beaten egg.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing.
