METHOD :

To prepare this classic Spinach Leek and Feta pie start by washing the spinach and the leek under running water. 

Drain the spinach in a colander. 

Continue by chopping the spinach into large chunks. 

Remove the outer layer of the leek and cut it lengthwise and then into 1cm semi-lunar pieces.

In a frying pan, add the oil and sautée the leek for approximately 5 minutes. 

Continue by adding the spinach in batches. 

Make sure you stir so that all the spinach is sauteed. 

Let the spinach and leek mixture rest.

Crumble the feta either with your hands or using a fork.

In a large bowl beat 4 eggs and add the crumbled Feta cheese, salt and melted butter. 

Stir and add the sautéed leeks and spinach.

Preheat the oven to 180C or 356F.

Butter a baking tray. 

Remove the Phyllo sheets out of the packaging. 

Cover the pastry sheets with a wet towel to prevent them from drying out.

Lay two layers of two phyllo sheets placed side by side on the bottom of baking tray so that their edges are overhanging from the baking tray.

Add roughly 3-4 tablespoons of the mixture onto the phyllo sheet evenly. 

Make sure the phyllo sheets do not get too soggy.

Lay another phyllo sheet on top and add the pie mixture. 

Repeat the process until you have one phyllo sheet left.

Fold in the overhanging portions of the bottom layer phyllo sheet. 

Lay the last phyllo sheet on top (the one you had set aside in the beginning) and tuck it in the corners of the baking tray.

Beat one egg with a tablespoon of water and brush this on the surface of the pie. 

Place the little butter cubes on the top phyllo sheet. 

This will make the phyllo even crunchier.

Pierce the pie with a fork and bake at 180C or 356F for 45-50 .
