Ingredients
- 300 grams fresh spinach
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 100 grams breadcrumbs
- 2 large eggs
- 100 grams, crumbled feta cheese
- 50 grams all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons paprika
Directions
Step 1
Wash the spinach thoroughly and blanch it in boiling water for 2-3 minutes. Drain and squeeze out all excess water, then chop finely.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, eggs, crumbled feta, and all-purpose flour.
Step 3
Season with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined and can be shaped into patties.
Step 4
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 5
Take a small handful of the spinach mixture and form it into a patty shape, about 7 cm (3 inches) wide and 1 cm (0.4 inches) thick.
Step 6
Place the patties in the skillet, leaving some space between them. Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 7
Remove the patties and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Step 8
Repeat with the remaining mixture, adding more olive oil to the skillet if needed.
Step 9
Serve the spinach patties warm with a side of yogurt sauce, a salad, or as part of a main meal.
