Recipe instructions
- WASH HANDS (This recipe requires you to work with the food directly with your hands).
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Wash and drain spinach.
- Chop spinach and put in a big glass bowl.
- Add salt and mix with hands.
- Leave the spinach to sit for about 10 minutes to allow the salt to draw out the water from the vegetable.
- The water in spinach will make the filling bitter so do not skip this step.
- Drain the spinach by either sqeezing it bit by bit with your hand over the sink or by spinning several times in a salad spinner.
- Transfer drained spinach into a new bowl.
- Add egg, and sour cream.
- Fold in feta and cheddar cheese.
- Put some olive oil in a small bowl.
- Grease a 9\13\ glass or metal baking pan.
- Take your phyllo dough sheets and lie the sheets, stacked, on a dry surface.
- TIP: (While adding the filling, you may wish to cover the dough with a dry towel and then a damp one to keep it from drying out or flaking) Place one sheet of dough into the pan and cut away excess.
- Brush with oil, using either your hands or a pastry brush.
- Repeat until dough is 6 or 7 layers.
- Add a skim of filling with hands and spread evenly.
- Repeat steps 16-18 until the pie reaches the top of the pan or you run out of ingredients.
- Just make sure you finish with the dough on top, sort of like lasagna.
- Place pie in the oven, uncovered, about 45 minutes.
- The top becomes flaky.
- Pour on top of the pie while it is baking, 1/4 cup sour cream blended with 0.125 cup of milk.
- Bakefor 15 more minutes.
- This dish can be served warm or room temperature.
-
It is traditionally served with a yogurt beverage which is easily replicated by mixing the plain yogurt with milk, in equal parts.
