Recipe


Ingredients

  • 500g frozen spinach, defrosted & as much water squeezed as possible
  • 1 medium zucchini, grated
  • 1 head broccoli, finely chopped
  • 1 bunch parsley, stalks & leaves, finely chopped
  • 1 medium brown onion, peeled & grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled & finely chopped
  • 300g Greek feta, crumbled
  • 5 eggs, whisked
  • 375g filo pastry
  • ½ cup + more extra-virgin olive oil

Method


  • Heat oven to 180°C and grease a large 18x30cm lasagne dish or similar with extra-virgin olive oil.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the spinach, zucchini, broccoli, parsley, onion, garlic, feta and eggs and mix well.
  • Layer 2 sheets of the filo into the base of the lasagne dish (it won’t stretch across the entire length/width so you’ll have a few rounds of this to cover the base. There should be about 2-3cm overhang over the sides of the dish to help fold over at the end.
  • Brush all over with extra-virgin olive oil. Add the filling mix. Layer another 2 sheets over the top (again you’ll need to do a few sets of these because one won’t cover the entire length/width), brush with olive oil and repeat, brushing every two layers with olive oil until you’ve used up all the filo.
  • Brush the top layer with oil, sprinkle with a few drops of water, then fold over the edges.
  • Brush the edges with a touch of olive oil. Sprinkle with some sesame seeds if handy or just leave as is.
  • Bake in oven for 60 mins or until the top is golden brown. Cut into squares and dig in.
