Steps

  1. 1

    Thaw the spinach.

  2. 2

    Finely chop the onions and sauté them in a large pot with a little olive oil until just softened.

  3. 3

    Add the spinach, dill, salt, pepper, mint, and turmeric. Stir and cook for a few minutes until most of the liquid has evaporated. Taste the spinach; if it’s tender, it’s ready. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

  4. 4

    Once cooled, add the feta (cut into small pieces) and eggs to the pot with the spinach. Mix well.

  5. 5

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a baking pan with olive oil and layer two sheets of phyllo dough on the bottom. Lightly brush the top with olive oil and repeat two more times (use a total of 5-6 sheets for the base).

  6. 6

    Spread the filling evenly over the phyllo. Fold any overhanging edges over the filling, then layer the remaining phyllo sheets on top, two at a time, brushing each layer with olive oil. Fold in the edges again.

  7. 7

    Score the pie into pieces and bake for 1 hour at 350°F (180°C).
