Ingredients:
7-10 Phyllo (fillo) sheets, at room temperature
1/3-1/2 cup (80-120ml) Olive oil
2 pounds (900g) Spinach
1 Large onion, chopped
2-3 Spring onions, chopped
1/4 bunch Parsley, chopped
1/4 bunch Dill, chopped
12oz (340g) Feta cheese
12oz (340g) Ricotta cheese
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
1 teaspoon Dried oregano
Lemon zest from one lemon
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350F (180C).
2. Make the filling: in a large pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add chopped onion and sauté over medium heat until golden, add spinach and cook for 5-7 minutes, until the spinach is wilted.
3. Drain excess liquids and transfer to a large bowl. Crumble the feta cheese and ricotta cheese into the bowl, then add chopped spring onions, parsley, dill, lemon zest and spices. Mix until well combined and set aside.
4. Assembly: brush the bottom of a 9X13 inch (22X33cm) rectangle pan or 11-inch (28cm) round pan with olive oil. Take a sheet of pastry and place in the baking dish, that way so that some of the pastry hangs over the side. Brush with olive oil. Add 2-3 more sheets in the same manner, and brush them with olive oil between every layer.
5. Evenly spread the spinach and feta filling over the phyllo crust. Then, cover with 3 layers of phyllo, brushing with olive oil in between the layers. Fold the flaps or excess from the sides and brush the top layers with olive oil.
6. Using a very sharp knife cut the pie into rectangles or any other shape.
7. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown.
8. Allow to cool for 15 minutes before serving. Serve with fresh Greek salad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7rU-1-s7NM

You can also have greek yogurt as a dip with the spanakopita!
I know, it's very tasty. 🤩
But haven't you forgotten to put eggs and a teaspoon of flour in the composition of greens?
مطبق مالح .. اكلة عربية قديمة 😍
Looks great. Why cut the pie before baking it?
Mery good..
Mery..
Good
love the music!
I love spanikopita 🤤
As a Greek I would like to add a few tips for anyone making spanakopita. It is truly not necessary to saute your scallions or leeks and spinach before hand. I promise you will not see a difference and save time. Please add your feta before you add your salt. Ricotta is a nice addition perhaps but not an original ingredient in spinach pie. Once you score it before baking and adding some oil on top, sprinkle water over the phyllo. It will help keep it compact and prevent it from popping up. Enjoy.
Excellent meal for all
I made this today but I would definitely recommend not using dill as it’s very overpowering 😣
i am Greek to and i have to say my mom dosent boil the spinach cause once you do this you loose all the flavor…😃😎
Deve ser tão bom , como voces estão?
Thanks DEAR Friend
