Stuffed filo dough is a delicate pastry featuring layers of thin, flaky filo sheets wrapped around a flavorful filling. Popular in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Balkan cuisines, it often includes ingredients like spinach and feta, spiced meats, potatoes, or sweet mixtures like nuts and honey. The dough itself is typically made with flour, water, and very little fat, making it light, but the final dish often incorporates butter or oil for crispiness. Nutritionally, fillings such as spinach or lean proteins offer vitamins, minerals, and balanced macronutrients, while sweet variations provide energy through natural sugars. While it’s often enjoyed in moderation, the fat content from added butter and oil can increase the calorie density. As a versatile dish, stuffed filo dough can be adapted to suit healthier profiles, offering opportunities for nutrient-rich, low-fat fillings that highlight the culinary traditions from which it originates.
