Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly oil a 9x9 inch square baking pan.
- Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute onion, green onions and garlic, until soft and lightly browned. Stir in spinach and parsley, and continue to saute until spinach is limp, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
- In a medium bowl, mix together eggs, ricotta, and feta. Stir in spinach mixture. Lay 1 sheet of phyllo dough in prepared baking pan, and brush lightly with olive oil. Lay another sheet of phyllo dough on top, brush with olive oil, and repeat process with two more sheets of phyllo. The sheets will overlap the pan. Spread spinach and cheese mixture into pan and fold overhanging dough over filling. Brush with oil, then layer remaining 4 sheets of phyllo dough, brushing each with oil. Tuck overhanging dough into pan to seal filling.
- Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until golden brown. Cut into squares and serve while hot.

Steps:
- Combine butter and olive oil in large heavy pan and fry onion and garlic until soft.
- Wash and drain spinach and remove thick stalks, then blanch for a minute or two in boiling water.
- Add blanched spinach to onion and garlic mix and cook for further 5 minutes or so.
- Spinach should be deep green colour and stalks should be tender.
- Add eggs (I use no eggs, but the traditional receipe calls for them) and dill.
- Crumble feta into pan and stir well for a minute or two.
- Eggs should be cooked by then.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Butter baking pan.
- If using phyllo, separate sheets, and brush each sheet individually with melted butter.
- Use 15-20 sheets, and overlap them, making sure that sheets hang well over the edge of the pan.
- If using short-crust or puff pastry, roll out a sheet big enough to line pan with plenty hanging outside.
- If making bite-sized pies cut squares approximately 2 1/12" square.
- Drain spinach mixture by pressing lightly and allowing liquid to drain into a cup or bowl.
- The filling should not be too wet or the pastry gets mushy.
- It should also not be too dry or the pie is not juicy enough.
- Put filling into pastry and bring edges up to enclose filling.
- (Fill each bite-size square with a spoonfull or so, fold over pastry into a triangle).
- Seal by crimping, tucking in, or any means that work.
- Score the top lightly, not enough to reach filling, and brush with egg.
- Bake in moderate oven until pastry is golden and done.
- Good hot or cold.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a medium heated saute pan, add butter (all except 6 tablespoons), onion, and scallion. Cook until translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- In a sauce pot, boil spinach in water until tender. Strain and pat dry until all water is out. In a large mixing bowl, mix spinach, onion-scallion mixture, parsley and dill together. Add cheese, eggs, salt and pepper. Mix well. Add back into sauce pot and boil for five minutes. Place aside.
- Moisten filo dough one by one with the remaining butter (melted) with pastry brush. In a baking pan, add five layers of dough to bottom. Next, add spinach mixture. Spread evenly. Add another five layers of dough on top, tucking in corners. Place in oven and bake for approximately one hour.
SPANAKOPITA (GREEK SPINACH AND FETA PIE)
You can make this recipe with fresh spinach or three boxes of frozen chopped spinach; fresh spinach will have a better flavor and texture, but it takes much longer to wash and stem. Baby spinach works very well and requires less work, if you don't mind paying the extra price.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375º F.
- (For fresh spinach) Working in batches, wash and drain the spinach. Discard any large stems and chop the leaves coarsely. Combine the spinach, parsley, dill, green onions and salt. Let stand in a colander for 15 minutes and then press out the liquid. (For frozen spinach) Thaw the spinach and squeeze out most of the water, leaving just a little to prevent it drying out in the oven. Combine with the parsley, dill, green onions and salt.
- Heat the olive oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, then add the onions and saute until transparent.
- Adjust the heat to medium, add the spinach mixture in batches and saute until the spinach and herbs are wilted.
- Turn off the heat and stir the feta and black pepper into the mixture.
- Butter a 10"x17"x2" baking pan and lay 8 filo sheets in the bottom, brushing each layer with butter or spraying it with oil.
- Spread the spinach mixture into the baking pan.
- Cover with the remaining filo sheets, brushing each layer with butter or spraying it with oil.
- Bake until the top is golden brown, about 30 minutes.
