Spinach Pie
- 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 yellow onions, diced
- 5 bunches scallions, chopped
- 1 cup fresh dill, chopped
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 6 pounds spinach, chopped
- 4 pounds feta cheese, crumbled
- 7 large eggs
- 2 pounds phyllo dough
- 2 pounds butter, melted
- To a large pot, add the olive oil and saute the yellow onion until brown.
- Add the scallions, dill, nutmeg, black pepper and salt.
- Boil the chopped spinach until blanched and still bright green, stirring occasionally.
- Mix it together with the ingredients in the pot.
- Add the crumbled feta cheese and the eggs, making sure that the mixture is slightly cool so the eggs don't scramble, and mix.
- Brush the 1 pound of the phyllo dough with melted butter piece by piece, layering in a large enough tray to fit the phyllo sheets.
- Then add the mix on top, and piece by piece layer and brush the rest of the phyllo on top.
- Mark the pieces with a knife and make sure the ends are tucked in, then sprinkle with a little water.
- Bake at 325 degrees F for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
