Spanakopita

What is "spanakopita"?

Spanakopita is a traditional Greek savory pastry that is made with spinach, feta cheese, and phyllo dough. The dish is typically prepared by sautéing spinach with onions, garlic, and herbs, then mixing it with crumbled feta cheese and eggs to create a filling. The mixture is then layered between sheets of delicate phyllo dough, which is brushed with butter or olive oil to create a crispy and flaky crust. Spanakopita can be served as an appetizer or a main course and is often enjoyed with a fresh Greek salad or tzatziki sauce.
