Steps:
- In a frying pan sauté the leeks in 2 tbs olive oil for about 10 minutes, until softened. Season with salt, pepper and rosemary. Transfer the leeks to a large bowl.
- Use the same pan (without washing it) to cook the spinach in the remaining olive oil until soft. Add some salt. Transfer to the bowl with the leeks.
- Grate the yellow cheese and add it to the spinach and leeks. Crumble the white cheese and add it to the same mixture. Add the eggs and stir the ingredients in the bowl until everything is mixed well.
- Preheat oven to 390 degrees F/ 200 degrees C. Grease a 10 inch/ 26 cm spring form pan and cover it with a sheet of parchment paper.
- Lay 1 filo sheet on the prepared baking pan so that part of the sheet is hanging outside (see photos). Brush it lightly with butter. Lay another sheet next to the first one so that they are overlapping. Repeat the process until the bottom of the pan is covered with filo sheets. Spread the spinach and leeks mixture inside the pan. Fold the excess filo pastry inwards to enclose the filling. Brush the top with the remaining butter.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown.

SPANAKOPITA (GREEK SPINACH PIE)
The secret to my spanakopita is 3 kinds of onion - red onion, spring onions and leek. If you are lacking one, just add more of the others, but this is the 'secret ingredient' to an excellent pie. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Heat 4 tablespoons of olive oil in a large saucepan and sauté the onions and leek until translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Add the spinach and saute until the leaves have wilted and the liquid has cooked off, about 8-10 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat and allow to cool somewhat. When cool enough to handle, finely chop the spinach and place in a large bowl.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Lightly oil (always use olive oil!) a 12 inch in diameter, metal baking pan (you can use a larger baking pan - you will just have a thinner pita, but don't use a smaller one), or a 10 x 15 inch rectangular baking pan.
- Add dill and feta cheese to the spinach. Add salt and pepper to taste (careful with the salt - the feta will add quite a bit of its own). Pour the eggs over and give a stir to combine well.
- Open up the phyllo pastry and place on a work surface. If using the country style pastry proceed, if using the thinner phyllo; cover with a damp cloth. (Continue to cover the pastry sheets with the damp cloth each time you remove one as you prepare the pie.).
- Layer the phyllo in the pan, allowing the edges to hang over the sides of the pan, brushing each phyllo layer generously with olive oil.
- Use up half the phyllo sheets to make the bottom pastry layer, allowing excess pastry to drape over edge of pan.
- Put the spinach mixture in and press the top down gently to smooth filling. Tuck in the pastry draping over the edges.
- Repeat layering with the remaining phyllo, oiling each sheet generously.
- Using a sharp knife, score the upper layers of pastry into the size pieces you will want to serve once the pie is baked- BE CAREFUL NOT TO CUT THROUGH BOTTOM PASTRY.
- Bake the pie in the middle of the oven for approximately 40-45 minutes until it is golden brown. For the last 15-20 minutes, I put my baking pan directly on the oven floor to crisp it better.
- Cool till just warm (we never, but never eat this hot! The flavours just wouldn't come through properly). Cut into serving pieces and serve either just warm or at room temperature.
- Note: If my spinach filling appears to be too 'wet', I often take 2 of the phyllo sheets and use them as a 'layer' between the spinach filling; these sheets absorb the extra liquid (they must not be brushed with oil).
- It's also worth noting that Greeks love their olive oil! I have used olive oil with a lighter hand than most Greeks in this recipe - but it may still be too much for you. Feel free to add the amount you feel most comfortable with, but be aware that flavour may be compromised.

Steps:
- Melt the butter with the oil in a large pan, tip in the leeks and splash in a little hot water. Cover and cook over a low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes until no longer squeaky.
- While the leeks are cooking, boil the penne in salted water according to the packet instructions. Meanwhile, tip the crème fraîche, sundried tomatoes and mustard into the leeks, add three-quarters of the cheese and season well. Stir until the cheese melts. Take off the heat.
- Drain the pasta, reserving the cooking water. Tip the pasta into the sauce and stir, adding enough cooking water to make the sauce coat the pasta. Stir in the spinach, a big handful at a time, until it wilts, splashing in a little more water if needed. Toss in the remaining cheese and serve.
