Ingredients
  • 280 g fresh spinach or thawed frozen, well-drained
  • 250 g ricotta
  • 120 g crumbled feta
  • 120 g shredded mozzarella
  • 60 g grated Parmesan
  • ½ small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 egg, beaten for binding
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp dried basil
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prep the filling:Wash spinach and remove tough stems. Sauté in a pan over medium heat until wilted. Drain excess moisture and chop finely.
  2. Mix cheeses & herbs:In a bowl, combine spinach with ricotta, feta, mozzarella, Parmesan, onion, garlic, beaten egg, oregano, basil, and season to taste.
  3. Roll pastry:Preheat oven to 200 °C (390 °F). Roll out puff pastry on lightly floured surface; cut into 10×10 cm squares (or rectangles).
  4. Assemble pastries:Spoon filling onto each square. Fold into triangles or rectangles, sealing edges firmly (crimp with fork for decorative finish).
  5. Glaze & garnish:Place pastries on lined baking sheet. Brush tops with beaten egg, sprinkle seeds if desired.
  6. Bake:Bake 15–20 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
  7. Rest & serve:Let cool slightly before serving — enjoy warm or at room temperature.
