How to make THE BEST Greek Spinach Pie (Spanakopita)
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Watch how to make this authentic Greek spinach pie (SPANAKOPITA). This rich spinach and feta cheese pie is stuffed with onions, cheeses, and herbs that are enfolded in crispy, flaky, phyllo dough.
A super quick and brilliantly simple feta and spinach pie which uses layers of phyllo pastry to give you the most amazingly crispy pie that is perfect for a hot summers day.
This recipe is widely used in Albania as well - Byrek Me Spinaq
Ingredients
- baby spinach 500g, chopped
- ricotta cheese 300g, at room temperature
- feta cheese 500g, crumbled
- spring onions 5-7, thinly sliced
- black ground pepper 1tsp
- salt 1/2tsp
- fresh dill 1 cup
- olive oil 2 cups, separated
- eggs 3, beaten and at room temperature
- phyllo pastry 1 pack at room temperature
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450°F/ 230°C degrees.
Combine the chopped baby spinach, ricotta and feta cheese, spring onions, fresh dill, and 1 cup olive oil in a large bowl and mix until everything is combined very well.
Taste the mixture and add black pepper and as much salt as you like.
Add the beaten eggs and mix well.
Drizzle some oil all over a half sheet baking tray.
Lay 3 sheets on the bottom of tray and drizzle with a little olive oil.
Place 2 sheets half in the tray and half hanging outside of the pan on all four sides of the pan.
See the video above.
Spread all of the filling inside of the phyllo sheets. All of the sheets that are hanging outside of the pan should go over the filling. See video.
Drizzle some olive oil all over the phyllo. Cover half of the pie with 2 sheets of phyllo, tucking them under and repeat the same with the other side of the pie. This is demonstrated in the video tutorial.
Take the remaining phyllo sheets one at a time and crumble them in rows on top of the pie. Drizzle all the remaining olive oil on top. This will create a crisp, light crust.
Use a sharp knife and cut the pie into equal slices.
Place in oven and immediately reduce the temperature to 350°F/ 175°C degrees.
Bake for 1 hour. The pie will be crisp and golden brown.
Allow to rest at room temperature for at least 20 minutes before serving. This will allow the filling to set.
Serve!

I am old...been cooking for a long time and am surprised that many do not saute the onion. I learned in cooking when you saute the flavor is improved, be it onion or meat. Thought I would pass that on.

If the green onions are young and small and tender, there is no need to cook them... If they are old and big and crunchy, it's better to saute in olive oil for a few minutes first, because the filling should be smooth, not full of... However, almost every "Yaya" seems to agree that the spinach should not be precooked.

Anytime you bake with phyllo you need to score it first otherwise it will crumble if you try after its baked.

@@rosezingleman5007 Yes, it grlis release steam but adding a bit if bread crumbs above your bottom layer I'd phyllo (before adding your filling) helps absurd any liquid that may come from your spinach. You can never taste the bread crumbs. However, you would never do that with cheese pie. No excess liquid to worry about.
Obviously we prefer the best feta and that is anything made in Iperos. However, you can use some (not too much) ricotta as well. Greens can be mixed albeit the wild greens are always best. A little (not too much) rice. salt should always be sea salt. But my late yia yia taught her eldest grand son and I love doing it
Super like , delicioso y nutritivo, Saludos cordiales

I made this last night and it was delicious. I'm gluten free and made it with puff pastry. I would love to have tried this laying out method of the filo. It looks really interesting. I plan to pass this on to friends who can give it a try. The filling is the important part of a good spanakopita and I give this one two thumbs up.

In Albania this is called Pite me spanak. I've never tried it with phyllo dough before. I'm actually making this tomorrow because I love it so much. And never actually made it with Ricotta cheese or feta cheese or eggs. I just make it with cottage cheese & spinach.
Fantastic 👍32

I do think you make the best stuffing because everything tastes beta with feta. Do you use some minced garlic a bit as well? I am a fan of the filo burrito style for the portability and cutting that as a slant and using tsiki sauce like a burrito sauce on top of my bites. Yes I am odd.
Your Hands are wonderful 😍❤️

spinach must be wilted on stove before being mixed with cheeses.
