Ingredients

- baby spinach 500g, chopped
- ricotta cheese 300g, at room temperature
- feta cheese 500g, crumbled
- spring onions 5-7, thinly sliced
- black ground pepper 1tsp
- salt 1/2tsp
- fresh dill 1 cup
- olive oil 2 cups, separated
- eggs 3, beaten and at room temperature
- phyllo pastry 1 pack at room temperature
Instructions

Preheat oven to 450°F/ 230°C degrees.
Combine the chopped baby spinach, ricotta and feta cheese, spring onions, fresh dill, and 1 cup olive oil in a large bowl and mix until everything is combined very well.
Taste the mixture and add black pepper and as much salt as you like.
Add the beaten eggs and mix well.
Drizzle some oil all over a half sheet baking tray.
Lay 3 sheets on the bottom of tray and drizzle with a little olive oil.
​Place 2 sheets half in the tray and half hanging outside of the pan on all four sides of the ​pan.
See the ​video above.
Spread all of the filling inside of the phyllo sheets. All of the sheets that are hanging outside of the pan should go over the filling. See video.
​Drizzle some olive oil all over the phyllo. Cover half of the pie with 2 sheets of phyllo, tucking them under and repeat the same with the other side of the pie. This is demonstrated in the video tutorial.
Take the remaining phyllo sheets one at a time and crumble them in rows on top of the pie. Drizzle all the remaining olive oil on top. This will create a crisp, light crust.
​Use a sharp knife and cut the pie into equal slices.
​Place in oven and immediately reduce the temperature to 350°F/ 175°C degrees.
Bake for 1 hour. The pie will be crisp and golden brown.
Allow to rest at room temperature for at least 20 minutes before serving. This will allow the filling to set.
​Serve!
