👩🍳 Instructions – Step by Step
1️⃣ Prepare the Dough (Skip if Using Puff Pastry)
- In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Add cold butter and rub it into the flour until crumbly.
- Gradually add cold water and mix until a dough forms. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2️⃣ Make the Spinach Filling
- In a bowl, mix chopped spinach, feta cheese, garlic powder, black pepper, and egg. Stir well to combine.
3️⃣ Assemble the Pastries
- Roll out the dough (or store-bought puff pastry) into a thin sheet.
- Cut into squares or circles, depending on your preference.
- Place 1-2 tbsp of the spinach filling in the center of each piece.
- Fold into a triangle or seal like a hand pie, pressing the edges with a fork.
4️⃣ Baking
- Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F).
- Brush the pastries with egg yolk and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
