Instructions

1Quickly sauté the spinach in a pan until wilted, then transfer it to a colander. Once cooled, wrap it in a kitchen towel and squeeze firmly to remove all the liquid. This is key for crispy pastry!
2In a pan, sauté the onion and spring onion in a little oil until softened. Remove from heat and let cool.
3In a bowl, mix the squeezed and chopped spinach, sautéed onion, crumbled feta, eggs, dill, mint, nutmeg, and pepper. Be careful with the salt, as feta is already salty.
4Cut the filo pastry into long strips, about 8–10 cm wide. Lightly brush each strip with olive oil.
5Place a heaping spoonful of filling at the bottom of the strip. Fold the bottom corner of the strip over the filling to form a triangle, then continue folding in a triangle shape to the end of the strip.
6Place the triangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
7Bake at 180 °C for about 20–25 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
