Preparation
Side-by-side mode
- Blanch spinach for 30 seconds in salted boiling water.
- Set spinaches in a sieve and refresh them well under cold water. Spin spinaches 3 to 4 times to remove water at its maximum.
- Set spinach in a blender with feta cheese, ricotta, eggs, and oregano, then mix until a homogenized mixture is obtained. Set aside.
- In a pan at medium-high heat, fry leeks and spinach in olive oil for 3 to 4 minutes. Add pistachios and fennel seeds, and continue cooking for 1 minute.
- Add vegetables sauté to the mixture of spinach.
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Set a phyllo pastry sheet on an aluminum plate brushed with melted butter. Add a phyllo and slightly shift corners. Brush again with butter. Repeat those steps with 5 other phyllo pastries.
- Pour the mixture and fold the corners of each sheet towards the inside while brushing with butter.
- Scrunch the last phyllo sheet carefully and set over it with a bit of butter spread with breadcrumbs.
- Oven bake for about 40 minutes.
