go greek with spanakopita !



Spanakopita is a greek savoury pie with a filling of spinach,feta cheese and onions.I used puff pastry in making this pie.Working with puff pastry is so much fun...its simple..its easy...its exciting when you see the  pastry puffing in the oven.. it reminds you of what you call patties in India..!!

Here's how you can make these yummy pies:


Ingredients :

1 cup Spinach(blanched and mashed)
1/2 cup Feta cheese(crumbled)
1 Small Onion(chopped)
1 tbsp Cheddar cheese
Puff pastry block or sheets 
Salt to taste
1/2 tsp Black pepper
1/2 tsp Garlic
1/2 tsp Oregano

Method :
In a bowl mix spinach,feta cheese,onions,salt,pepper,garlic and oregano.Roll puff pastry block into small round shapes just like puris.Top it with the mixture leaving some space on the edges.Sprinkle some grated cheddar cheese.Bake it for 15-20 minutes till the pastry becomes golden.

Serve hot!!
