1 pack phyllo dough (thawed)
1 12oz bag of frozen spinach
1/4 medium onion diced
3-4 cloves of garlic minced
1 cup feta
1/2 cup greek yogurt
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup olive oil +(2tbs for saute)
Chilli,salt, pepper flakes to taste
1) saute diced onions on medium heat with a pinch of salt and pepper for 3-4 minutes in a little oil or untill translucent and start to brown, add garlic – saute untill fragrant. Add spinach, thawed and drained. Cook for 5-7 minutes or untill flavors are well incorporated and water is mostly evaporated. Add a dash of chilli flakes
2) Melt butter and olive oil in a pan and set aside for dough
3) Once spinach has cooled for a few minutes, add into bowl with Feta and yogurt. Mix untill well incorporated. Salt and pepper to taste
4) preheat oven to 375°F and grease a 8×4 baking pan. Start adding phyllo dough by placing one sheet, using the oil and butter mixture to coat with a brush and placing another sheet on top. Likely you'll be able to use one sheet, butter and fold it, creating 2 layers in a smaller pan. Do this untill you have 15-17 layers.
5) add spinach and Feta mixture and create another 15-17 layers of phyllo on top of that.
6) Bake for 40-45 minutes or untill golden brown, layers are puffed up, and bottom is crispy. Let rest for atleast 5 minutes.
