Makes 9 parcels | Time: 1 hour | Difficulty: More effort

Ingredients

  • 3 sheets of filo
  • 20g butter
  • 100g YAMAS! Feta
  • 250g fresh spinach
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, grated or finely chopped
  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • ½ lemon, zest and juice
  • 2 tsp vegetable oil
  • 1 egg
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a frying pan, add the onion and cook for 10 minutes.
  2. Wilt the spinach by pouring hot water over it in a colander. Let it cool, drain, and squeeze out excess liquid. Roughly chop.
  3. Add the garlic to the frying pan, cook for a couple of minutes, then transfer the onions and garlic to a large bowl to cool.
  4. Once cool, add the spinach, nutmeg, oregano, lemon zest & juice, and egg to the bowl. Mix well, then crumble in the feta and mix gently. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Melt the butter in a small pan.
  6. Heat the oven to 180°C.
  7. Cut the filo sheets lengthways into 3.
  8. Take one filo length and brush with the melted butter. Place some feta mix at the top and fold diagonally to make a triangle. Continue folding down the length. Repeat with other sheets and the remaining feta mix.
  9. Brush the top with the remaining butter and bake in the oven for 20 minutes until golden brown.
  10. Enjoy your spinach and feta parcels dipped into tzatziki! If you’re making them ahead of time, store them in the fridge or freezer in a secure container, then heat them thoroughly before serving at your next get-together.

Enjoy as a tasty starter or as a delicious snack!
