First Things First

Our vegetables and fruit come as fresh as can be, so please give them a quick wash before you get started.

As well as your basic cooking tools, you will need...

Baking Tray
Bowl
Large Pot
Sieve
Loose Bottom Cake Tin
Pastry Brush

Step 1

1 Wilt Spinach

Preheat oven to 200°C. In a pot over medium heat, add most of the baby spinach (reserve a handful for the salad) and 2 Tbsp water. Cook until just wilted. Transfer to a sieve, leave to cool, then squeeze out excess water.

Step 2

2 Prepare Filling

Crumble fetta, reserving some for the salad. Slice spring onion, discarding the roots. In a large bowl, combine sundried tomatoes, spring onion, wilted spinach, beaten eggs and crumbled fetta. You can also blitz in the food processor to combine on the pulse setting for a second at a time.

Step 3

3 Prepare Pastry

Melt butter in microwave in 10 second intervals. Unroll filo pastry. Cover with damp paper towel to avoid drying out. Carefully brush one sheet of pastry with melted butter. Drape butter-side down in the cake tin, allowing some of the pastry to hang over side. Repeat butter process with another pastry sheet, placing in the tin a little further round.

Step 4

4 Finish Pie

Repeat another 3 times, layering the pastry in the tin until you have 5 layers, then spoon in the filling. Pull the sides into the middle, scrunch up and make sure the filling is covered. Brush with a little more melted butter.

Step 5

5 Bake Pie

Keeping the pie in the cake tin, place on a baking tray and transfer to the bottom shelf of the oven. Cook for about 25 minutes until the pastry is crisp and golden brown.

Step 6

6 You Plate It

In the meantime, medium dice the cucumber and halve cherry tomato then add to a bowl. Add remaining spinach and fetta. Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste, and drizzle with a little olive oil. Remove pie from the cake tin, slice into wedges and serve with the salad. Enjoy!
