Spanahopittes - Spinach and Fetta Pastries Print E-mail


  • 150ml olive oil
  • 2-3 onions, finely chopped
  • 1 kg fresh spinach, cleaned, washed well and roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped dill
  • 3 eggs beaten
  • 350g Fetta cheese grated
  • ½ teaspoon cinammon
  • Salt and pepper
  • 500g of filo pastry
  • oil (for brushing pastry)

Preheat the oven to 180C (340F/Mark4)

In a pan fry the onion in oil until translucent, add the spinach, salt and pepper and fry for a further 10 minutes. 

Take away from the fire and add grated cheese, egg, dill and cinammon.

Cut the sheets of filo pastry in 5cm wide strips.  Take 2 strips of filo at a time and brush with oil.

Add a teaspoon of the filling at the top of the strips and roll (like a cigar) making sure that the filling stays in the pastry.

Place the rolls on a baking sheet and bake in a medium oven for 35 minutes or until the filo pastry is golden brown.
