Ingredients

  • 400 grams fresh spinach
  • 150 grams feta cheese
  • 120 grams cream cheese
  • 50 grams Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill
  • 10 pieces phyllo dough sheets
  • 100 grams unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

Wash the spinach thoroughly, then cook it in a large skillet over medium heat with a tablespoon of olive oil until wilted. This should take 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Remove the spinach from the skillet and squeeze out any excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Chop finely and set aside.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked and chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped fresh dill, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the filling is evenly combined.

Step 5

Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave. Keep it warm for brushing the phyllo dough.

Step 6

Unroll the phyllo dough and cover it with a damp kitchen towel to prevent it from drying out. Take one sheet of phyllo and place it on a clean work surface. Brush it lightly with melted butter.

Step 7

Cut the phyllo sheet lengthwise into three equal strips using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.

Step 8

Place a heaping teaspoon of the spinach and cheese filling near one end of a phyllo strip. Fold the bottom corner of the dough over the filling to form a triangle. Continue folding the triangle over itself, maintaining the triangle shape, until you reach the end of the strip. Brush the outside with more melted butter to seal.

Step 9

Repeat this process with the remaining phyllo sheets and filling.

Step 10

Arrange the triangles on the prepared baking sheets, leaving a small gap between each one.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the phyllo triangles are golden brown and crispy.

Step 12

Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
