Gather @filo pastry{400%g}, @feta cheese{300%g}, @spring onion{1%bunch}, @fresh dill{1%bunch}, @egg{3}, @olive oil{120%ml} and @black pepper{}.

Wilt the @spinach{800%g} in a dry pan in batches, then cool and squeeze it very dry before chopping roughly.

Soften the spring onions in a little oil, then mix with the spinach, feta, dill, eggs and plenty of pepper.

Brush the dish with oil and layer in half the filo, brushing every sheet and letting the edges hang over.

Spread the filling evenly, fold the overhang in, and layer the remaining sheets on top, brushing each one.

Score the top layers into portions with a sharp knife and flick a little water over the surface.

Bake at 180°C for 45 minutes until deep golden and crisp. ~{45%minutes}

Cool 15 minutes so the slices lift out cleanly. ~{15%minutes}
