RANCH-STYLE GREEK SPINACH PIE (SPANAKOPITA) #RSC

Steps:

• Directions:.
• Heat olive oil in pan and sauté the green onions and shallots until tender.
• Add the spinach, parsley and dill to sauté for another 5 minutes.
• Season with nutmeg, salt and pepper. Set aside to cool.
• In the meantime, combine the feta, Parmesan, Greek yogurt, and beaten eggs.
• Fold in the cooled spinach mixture.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Brush the bottom and sides of a 9x12 rectangular pan using a pastry brush.
• Unwrap the defrosted phyllo sheets and begin to add a sheet to the pan, buttering each layer with the pastry brush, until you reach 6-10 layers. If the sheets do not fit the pan exactly, just cut it to size as you go, or fold it over.
• Spread the filling over the layers of pastry and repeat 6-10 more layers on top of the filling.
• Brush on a final layer of butter and bake until golden brown, about 35 minutes.
• It may help to score the top of the phyllo with a knife before baking so that it's easier to cut after.
• This dish can be served as a main course, an appetizer or a side dish.
