Spanakopita, Greek spinach pie, is considered one of my all-time favourite dishes. It entails a few of favourite issues: feta cheese, a great deal of herbs, and crispy phyllo.
Generally I’m within the temper for Spanakopita however I don’t wish to make a complete big 9×13″ pan. This was a type of occasions! So I got here up with this little 9″ model that matches in a pie plate and it seems so completely.
I don’t even wish to inform you what number of slices of this I ate. Let’s simply say, I can’t be trusted to be ladylike round such an ideal dish. I hope you’re keen on this elegant dish as a lot as I do!

- To make the pie, decide three sheets of phyllo dough and press down into the pie plate, letting the surplus fall over the sting. Brush flippantly with olive oil. Proceed with the entire phyllo dough, setting three sheets down at a time, rotating the pie plate barely as you go, brushing with olive oil and barely urgent down with every new layer.
- Spoon spinach filling over phyllo dough, then fold the surplus edges in direction of the middle of the pie, crinkling them barely. Rigorously rbush with olive oil then bake the pie till phyllo is golden, 25-35 minutes.
