  1. START THE ‘KOPITA

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced Onion until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the nutmeg, the oregano, and the grated garlic and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Add the rinsed Spinach. Fry until the spinach is wilted and all excess liquid has evaporated, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and place in a bowl. Mix through the crumbled feta, the Cream Cheese, and seasoning.

  2. FOLD IN THE FILLING

    Lay the tortillas on a chopping board in a single layer. Using a knife, make an incision from the center of the tortillas to the bottom edge. Cover the tortillas in the Spinach mixture in a single layer. Working with one tortilla at a time, fold the bottom left corner up over the top left corner. Then fold it over the top right corner. Finally, fold it over the bottom right corner to create a stuffed tortilla triangle, with one open side. Repeat with the remaining tortillas to create 2 triangles.

  3. GOLDEN TORTILLAS

    Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil or a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry a stuffed tortilla triangle until crisp and golden on both sides, 3-4 minutes (flipping halfway). Be careful not to lose any filling! Repeat with the remaining tortilla.

  4. YOU’RE THE SALAD TO MY SPANAKOPITA

    In a salad bowl, combine the rinsed Salad Leaves, the Cucumber half-moons, the halved Baby Tomatoes, seasoning, and a drizzle of olive oil.
