Steps:
- Microwave 5 oz spinach until wilted, about 1 minute, or put in a skillet, cover with lid and allow to wilt over medium-low heat.
- Take away about 4 tablespoons of beaten egg into a separate bowl. Add the remaining egg to 8 ounces feta, 3 ounces cottage cheese (or homemade farmer's cheese) and mix together until everything is well combined. Now add the spinach and mix again.
- Take about half of your phyllo sheets and cut them into 3 long strips (about 3 inches wide each). Roll up the rest of the phyllo sheets and cover with a towel, to prevent them from drying.
- Drizzle couple teaspoons of butter all over the sheet. Add 1 tablespoon of feta-spinach filling to the end of each strip that's closest to you. Now grab two layers of sheets and start folding like pictured, into a triangle. Try to move fast or the phyllo dough will dry out.
- Place the triangles on a baking sheet and brush each triangle with either butter or the beaten egg. If you brush it with the beaten egg, they will have a sheen to it.
- Try to bake them as soon as you form them, or the wet filling will soften the phyllo and they will break while baking (see last picture in the post). Bake at 350F, for about 20-25 minutes or until golden in color.
- Eat warm or cold with refreshing Cucumber and Yogurt dip (recipe for Tzatziki dip here). Re-crisp leftovers by placing back in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, at 350°F.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring regularly, until it starts to soften, about 5 minutes
- Add the garlic and dill. Cook with the onions, stirring frequently, until caramelized and soft, about 5 more minutes. Set aside and allow to cool.
- Squeeze the defrosted spinach to drain all the water possible. You should end up with around 1 cup of spinach. Transfer to the skillet on top of the onion mixture.
- Add the parsley, green onions, lemon zest, ground pepper, feta cheese to the skillet and stir to distribute mixture evenly.
- Preheat the oven to 375° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- On a clean surface, roll out the phyllo pastry. Cut into 2 ½-3" wide strips lengthwise using a pizza cutter. Cover the pastry with a barely damp towel to prevent it from drying out.
- On a clean surface, layout 1 layer of phyllo pastry and brush it down with a small amount of butter using a pastry brush and very gentle motions.
- Place a second layer of pastry directly on top of the first and brush that with a small amount of butter.
- In one corner of the pastry layers, place 1 heaping tablespoon of filling mixture. Squish it into an approximate triangle that nearly reaches the edges.
- Fold the corner of the pasty with the filling over to reach the nearest opposite edge of the pastry. Then, roll the filling triangle towards the empty end of the pastry. Again, fold the triangle to the nearest opposite side. Repeat these last two steps until you reach the end of the pastry rectangle.
- Place the triangle on the prepared baking sheet and cover with a damp towel. Repeat the assembly with all the pastry sheets and filling. The triangles can be placed fairly close together on the baking sheet, about ½".
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Place a large frying pan over a medium heat and add the olive oil. Saute the onions until soft before removing from the heat and adding the spinach, spring onions, lemon juice, sumac, nutmeg, and salt and pepper. Once the spinach has wilted place into a colander to drain and cool slightly. Once cooled remove from the colander and add the pine nuts and toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Preheat the oven to 190 degrees celsius (375 Fahrenheit) and cut the 12 filo sheets in half. Take one sheet from the stack and cover the remaining sheets with a clean tea towel to prevent them from drying out.
- Brush the filo sheet with the butter and oil mixture and fold in half lengthways. Brush again and place a heaped spoonful of the mixture close to the corner of one of the short sides of the pastry. Fold the corner over to encase the filling, alternating left or right. Follow with a final brush of the butter and oil mixture and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper while you continue with the remaining pastry and mixture.
- Bake the triangles for 15 to 20 minutes, or until crispy and golden.

Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large saute pan, add half of the spinach and saute until spinach wilts, tossing with tongs, about 2 minutes. Remove spinach and squeeze out excess liquid, then chop roughly. Repeat with remaining spinach, using 1 more tablespoon of olive oil. Pour off any liquid from the pan, and add remaining olive oil. Add scallions and saute until soft, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the spinach to the scallions, along with the parsley, salt and pepper. Cook over low heat for 1 to 2 minutes, then remove from heat to cool. (This part can be done ahead and kept refrigerated).
- Stir the feta and as much beaten egg to moisten the cooled spinach mixture.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush a baking sheet with some of the melted butter.
- Unroll the filo dough on a flat surface and keep it covered with waxed paper and a damp towel so it doesn't dry out and become brittle. Using a sharp knife, cut the filo into 3 by 11 inch strips, and recover with the towel. Use a pastry brush to brush a strip of filo with melted butter. Place a small spoonful of spinach filling 1 inch from the end of the pastry. Fold the end over the filling to form a triangle, then continue to fold up the strip in triangles, like folding up a flag. Continue with remaining strips of dough, placing filled triangles on the baking sheet and keeping them covered with a towel until all are ready to bake.
- Brush the triangles lightly with butter, then bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Serve hot. (These may be frozen before baking, layering waxed paper between layers of triangles to keep them from sticking. Bake frozen triangles an extra 10 minutes.)

Steps:
- Heat a large non-stick pan over a medium heat. Tip in the spinach and cook, stirring, until wilted (you won't need any oil or water as it will steam in its own moisture). Leave to cool a little, then tip into a clean tea towel and squeeze out as much water as possible. Chop and put in a bowl.
- Heat the knob of butter in a non-stick frying pan. Add the onion and cook for about 10 mins until softened. Tip into the bowl with the spinach, then stir in the feta using a fork until fully combined. Taste for seasoning.
- Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Brush a 24 x 4cm deep metal pie dish with some of the butter.
- Lay a filo sheet on your work surface. Brush with some of the melted butter, then spread about 2 tbsp of the filling in a line along the longest edge of the pastry. Roll loosely into a long sausage (don't roll it too tight as this might cause the pastry to split), then coil the pastry and put in the centre of the tin.
- Repeat with the rest of the pastry and filling, arranging the coils around the central one. Brush the tops with more butter, then sprinkle with the nigella seeds. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden and crisp.

- If you’re a beginner with phyllo, check out some helpful handling tips before start preparing this spanakopita triangles recipe.

- Let the mixture cool down for a while and then tip into a bowl, leaving behind any excess liquid from the spinach (you don’t want your spanakopita triangles to become mushy). Mix in the feta cheese, eggs, nutmeg, spring onion and season. At this point you can add some chopped fresh herbs if you like; some fresh dill will surely lift the flavour.

- Add in nutritional yeast, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, sea salt, and ground black pepper and stir well with a fork to combine. Then add in finely chopped basil and spinach leaves and stir once again until the mixture is well combined.
- Roll out your package of thawed phyllo and lay it between plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out while you work with one sheet at a time. Take one sheet of phyllo and lay it onto a clean, dry surface with the shortest side toward you. Brush with a light coating of melted butter. Then lay a second sheet on top. Brush with another light coating of melted butter. Then slice it into 4 rows lengthwise, approximately 3" wide. Take a heaping tablespoon of spinach and tofu mixture and place it at the closest end to you. Then roll it up, not too tightly, to create a triangle.
- Place the triangles on a parchment covered baking sheet. You can bake immediately or freeze them at this stage. Just cover the baking sheet with plastic wrap and freeze until ready to bake. Do not thaw the triangles before baking.
