KITTENCAL'S GREEK SPINACH AND FETA PUFF PASTRY TRIANGLES
I have been making these for years for my get togethers and I sometimes make these using phyllo dough but puff pastry is really just as good and more convenient --- I sometimes add in roasted garlic into the spinach mixture and also a pinch of cayenne pepper for a bit of heat --- these are so good and make wonderful appetizers!

Steps:
- 1. Trim any coarse stems from the spinach. Wash the leaves, roughly chop and place in a large saucepan with just a little water clinging to the leaves. Cover and cook over low heat for 5 minutes, or until wilted. Drain well, cool slightly, then squeeze tightly to remove the excess water. 2. Heat the olive oil in a heavy-based frying pan. Sauté the onion over low heat for 10 minutes, or until soft and golden. Add the spring onion and cook for 3 minutes, then remove from the heat. Stir in the spinach, parsley, dill, nutmeg, parmesan, feta, ricotta and egg. Season well. 3. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F/Gas 4). Grease two baking trays. Lay three sheets of pastry on a work surface and cover the rest with a damp cloth. Brush each sheet with the melted butter, lay them on top of each other, then cut in half lengthways. Spoon 4 tablespoons of the filling on an angle at the end of each strip. Fold the pastry over to enclose the filling and form a triangle. Continue folding the triangle over until you reach the end. Repeat to make eight triangles. 4. Place on the baking trays and brush with more butter mixture. Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve hot.

Steps:
- Microwave 5 oz spinach until wilted, about 1 minute, or put in a skillet, cover with lid and allow to wilt over medium-low heat.
- Take away about 4 tablespoons of beaten egg into a separate bowl. Add the remaining egg to 8 ounces feta, 3 ounces cottage cheese (or homemade farmer's cheese) and mix together until everything is well combined. Now add the spinach and mix again.
- Take about half of your phyllo sheets and cut them into 3 long strips (about 3 inches wide each). Roll up the rest of the phyllo sheets and cover with a towel, to prevent them from drying.
- Drizzle couple teaspoons of butter all over the sheet. Add 1 tablespoon of feta-spinach filling to the end of each strip that's closest to you. Now grab two layers of sheets and start folding like pictured, into a triangle. Try to move fast or the phyllo dough will dry out.
- Place the triangles on a baking sheet and brush each triangle with either butter or the beaten egg. If you brush it with the beaten egg, they will have a sheen to it.
- Try to bake them as soon as you form them, or the wet filling will soften the phyllo and they will break while baking (see last picture in the post). Bake at 350F, for about 20-25 minutes or until golden in color.
- Eat warm or cold with refreshing Cucumber and Yogurt dip (recipe for Tzatziki dip here). Re-crisp leftovers by placing back in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, at 350°F.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 375° F.
- Saute your chopped onion in a skillet with 2 tbsp of butter for about 10 minutes or until translucent.
- If using fresh spinach, add it to your onions and saute for another 5 minutes or until the leaves are wilted down and water is fully evaporated. Take off heat.
- If using frozen spinach, make sure it is fully thawed. (A microwave can help do this quickly.)*There is a lot of excess water in frozen spinach so make sure to drain it very well. Take a few paper towels or a dish cloth and squeeze out any excess water. You do not want a watery filling!
- Add drained/cooled spinach, ricotta cheese, feta cheese, salt, onions, lemon juice, dill and garlic powder to a medium sized bowl and mix.
- Melt your butter in a saucepan or in a small bowl using your microwave. Scramble your egg in another bowl.
- Pull out your defrosted phyllo dough and lay one sheet down on the table.Make sure to cover your phyllo dough with a slightly damp dishtowel so it does not dry out!
- Carefully brush one sheet of phyllo dough lightly with butter. Add another layer of dough and brush again. You should have two buttered layers.
- Cut your phyllo dough into thirds lengthwise. Add 1½ - 2 tbsp of filling to the bottom of each strip of phyllo dough.
- Begin folding from the bottom up. You will want to maintain a right triangle. Continue folding the triangle upward until you reach the top. (See photos.) You should end up with 24 triangles.Brush your egg wash generously over the top and sides of your triangles and place on a nonstick baking sheet. Repeat until finished. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top if you prefer.°
- Bake in the center of your oven for 12-15 minutes or until your dough turns golden brown.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet and add the onion. Saute for a few minutes until they begin to soften and then add the spinach in batches, stirring until it wilts.

- Working with one piece of filo at a time, brush it with butter and then fold it in half. Place a small spoonful of the filling mixture at one end and carefully fold it over to make a triangle shape (see photo instructions in blog post). Continue to fold it over onto itself in a triangle pattern. Once you reach the end, brush the filo with some butter to help seal the triangle. Brush the entire triangle with butter on the outside and place it on a baking sheet. Repeat with all of the remaining filo.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring regularly, until it starts to soften, about 5 minutes
- Add the garlic and dill. Cook with the onions, stirring frequently, until caramelized and soft, about 5 more minutes. Set aside and allow to cool.
- Squeeze the defrosted spinach to drain all the water possible. You should end up with around 1 cup of spinach. Transfer to the skillet on top of the onion mixture.
- Add the parsley, green onions, lemon zest, ground pepper, feta cheese to the skillet and stir to distribute mixture evenly.
- Preheat the oven to 375° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- On a clean surface, roll out the phyllo pastry. Cut into 2 ½-3" wide strips lengthwise using a pizza cutter. Cover the pastry with a barely damp towel to prevent it from drying out.
- On a clean surface, layout 1 layer of phyllo pastry and brush it down with a small amount of butter using a pastry brush and very gentle motions.
- Place a second layer of pastry directly on top of the first and brush that with a small amount of butter.
- In one corner of the pastry layers, place 1 heaping tablespoon of filling mixture. Squish it into an approximate triangle that nearly reaches the edges.
- Fold the corner of the pasty with the filling over to reach the nearest opposite edge of the pastry. Then, roll the filling triangle towards the empty end of the pastry. Again, fold the triangle to the nearest opposite side. Repeat these last two steps until you reach the end of the pastry rectangle.
- Place the triangle on the prepared baking sheet and cover with a damp towel. Repeat the assembly with all the pastry sheets and filling. The triangles can be placed fairly close together on the baking sheet, about ½".
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- In food processor, combine spinach with scallions, parsley, dill, cheeses, eggs, salt and pepper. Process until smooth. On a cutting board, spray and layer three sheets of fillo dough. Lightly spraying each sheet with cooking spray. Cut layered phyllo in half lengthwise. Place one tablespoon of filling about 1" from corner of each strip. Fold one corner of fillo diagonally across to opposite edge to form a triangle. Spray lightly. Continue to fold triangle onto itself. Spray outside the outside of the triangle to produce a golden brown color when baked. Place triangles seam side down on ungreased cookie sheet at least 1" apart. Repeat until the filling is used up. Bake in preheated 350ºF oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Serve hot. __________________________________ GENERAL FILLO DOUGH HANDLING DIRECTIONS 1. Allow fillo dough to thaw in refrigerator overnight. Bring to room temperature before using. 2. Carefully unroll phyllo sheets onto a smooth, dry surface. 3. Cover fillo completely with plastic wrap, then a damp towel. 4. Keep fillo covered until needed. Do not leave uncovered for more than one minute to avoid drying out. 5. Microwave butter until melted. This will give you a lighter and flakier pastry. 6. Brush each layer of phyllo with melted butter, margarine or oil. 7. To prevent edges from cracking, brush edges first and then work into center. 8. Be sure to brush the last layer of phyllo with melted butter. 9. Fillings should be chilled and not excessively moist. 10. Fillo may be rolled and refrozen to store when not in use.
