Spanakopita Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Bring water to a boil. Add spinach, cover, and boil until spinach is defrosted. Place spinach in a colander and drain until barely moist. Set aside.
  • Heat oil in pan over medium-high heat. Add scallions and garlic and saute until scallions are soft. Add the spinach, feta, cottage cheese, dill, pepper, and salt. Stir to combine and remove from heat.
  • Place 1 phyllo sheet on a buttered sheet pan. (Cover remaining dough to keep from drying out.) Lightly coat sheet with melted butter. Coat 3 more phyllo sheets, one at a time, with melted butter and stack one on top of the other.
  • Spoon spinach mixture on top of the phyllo dough and spread evenly.
  • Brush remaining phyllo dough with butter and place on top of spinach mixture, making sure to press the phyllo down firmly. Score the top phyllo into a triangle shaped piece and butter the top of the phyllo.
  • Bake for 35 minutes or until golden brown. Cut into triangles. Serve warm.
  • Makes About 20 triangles
