Spinach, feta and pine nut pies

Cooking Vegetarian Spinach, feta and pine nut pies

Try these delicious vegetarian party pies with a nutty crunch.

  1. Use your hands to squeeze out as much excess liquid from the spinach as possible. Coarsely chop spinach and place in a bowl. Add the ricotta, feta, dill, mint, garlic, egg and half the pine nuts and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Preheat oven to 200°C. Use a sharp knife to cut the filo into 12cm squares. Brush a filo square with a little butter and top with another filo square. Continue layering with filo and butter to make four stacks. Line four Texas muffin pans (3/4-cup capacity) with the filo pastry. Spoon the spinach filling among the lined pans and sprinkle with remaining pine nuts. Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and just set. Remove from oven and set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Place on serving plates with mixed salad leaves, if desired. Serve hot or at room temperature.
