Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh leeks and spinach. If using frozen spinach, thaw and squeeze out excess water before using.
- To easily measure the feta cheese, crumble it into a measuring cup. You can also use pre-crumbled feta cheese.
- If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate. Just trim the edges of the filo dough to fit the pan.
- To prevent the filo dough from drying out, brush it with melted butter before baking.
- For a golden crust, brush the top of the tart with an egg wash before baking.
- Serve the tart warm or at room temperature. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
