Categories     Cheese     Egg     Vegetable

Number Of Ingredients 8

1lb 4oz spinach, washed
1 onion, chopped
3 eggs, beaten
16oz ricotta cheese
10oz Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 9-in gluten-free pie shells

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F 2. Steam the spinach, squeeze to drain well and roughly chop. 3. In a large bowl, mix the onion, beaten eggs, both types of cheese, pepper & nutmeg, and mix the cooked spinach. 4. Transfer mixture to one pie dish. Roll remaining mixture in sections of other pie shell. 5. Bake in preheated oven for 25–30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh spinach. Fresh spinach has a milder flavor and is more tender than frozen spinach.
  • Wilt the spinach before using it. Wilting the spinach helps to remove excess moisture and makes it easier to work with.
  • Use a good quality feta cheese. Feta cheese is the key ingredient in spanakopita, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that has a strong flavor.
  • Don't overfill the phyllo dough. Overfilling the phyllo dough will make it difficult to fold and will result in a soggy spanakopita.
  • Bake the spanakopita until it is golden brown. The spanakopita should be baked until the phyllo dough is golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.

Conclusion:

Spanakopita is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. It is a great way to use up leftover spinach and feta cheese, and it is also a good source of protein and fiber. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make a delicious spanakopita at home.
