Ingredients

  • 200 grams grain phyllo dough
  • 300 grams spinach
  • 150 grams feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 large eggs
  • 0.25 teaspoons nutmeg
  • 0.5 teaspoons peppers
  • 2 tablespoons dill
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

  1. 1Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly oil a baking sheet.
  2. 2In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until translucent.
  3. 3Add spinach to the skillet, cooking until wilted. Let it cool, then squeeze out excess moisture.
  4. 4In a mixing bowl, combine the wilted spinach, crumbled feta cheese, beaten egg, nutmeg, black pepper, finely chopped dill, and lemon zest.
  5. 5Lay out a sheet of whole grain phyllo dough on a clean surface. Brush lightly with olive oil, then place another sheet on top. Repeat this step to have a layered base.
  6. 6Place a portion of the spinach and feta mixture along one edge of the phyllo dough.
  7. 7Roll the dough tightly around the filling, then place the roll on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the top with a little olive oil.
  8. 8Repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling.
  9. 9Bake in the preheated oven until the rolls are golden and crispy, about 25-30 minutes.
  10. 10Let the rolls cool slightly before serving.
  11. 11Serve the rolls warm, optionally with a side of Greek yogurt or tzatziki sauce for dipping.
