SPINACH RICOTTA PIE
I got this recipe years ago from the nutrition department at Mass General Hospital. The hospital used to serve this in their cafeteria. Tasty and easy. I also use the filling for calzones and lasagna. You can lighten up the recipe by using low fat cheeses and sour cream plus egg substitute if desired.

SPINACH RICOTTA PIE WITH A HINT OF FETA
We've got a new local dairy (in such a small country, local also means national), that makes some of the best cheeses (and soy milk and soy puddings). This recipe really showcases their ricotta and feta cheeses. This is a great vegetarian dish to serve, we usually have some kind of variation after the Yom Kippur fast day. I also like to add some za'atar in with the oregano.

Steps:
- Place spinach in a skillet over medium heat and cook until wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain, squeeze dry, and chop finely.
- Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat and add onion. Cook until onion starts to soften, about 3 minutes. Add spinach and cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Stir ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, 2 whole eggs, nutmeg, salt, and pepper into the cooled spinach mixture.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch tart pan or pie dish.
- Unwrap the phyllo dough. Keep covered with a damp cloth to prevent phyllo sheets from drying out.
- Lay 1 sheet of phyllo over the buttered dish flush with the edge so that excess phyllo hangs over on only one side of the dish. Brush lightly with melted butter. Top with another sheet of phyllo at a slight angle to the first one. Continue in this manner, with up to 12 sheets, brushing each sheet with butter and working clockwise to lay each at a slight angle to the previous sheet.
- Spoon cheese and spinach mixture evenly into the phyllo-lined dish. Using the back of a spoon, make six indentations in the filling, then carefully place 1 egg yolk in each. Season each yolk with salt and pepper and drizzle with a bit of melted butter.
- Take the extra phyllo dough hanging over the edges of the dish and fold it over to the centre to cover the filling, 1 sheet of phyllo at a time, brushing each one with butter. Brush the top of the whole pie with butter.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the phyllo pastry is a dark golden brown, about 40 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm.

Steps:
- Lightly oil/butter the inside of your pie dish. Roll out one piece of pastry to approx 1/8in/3mm thick (or a bit thicker, as you prefer). Turn over your pie dish and use the top to cut the top layer for the pie. Set this aside. Roll out the other piece of pastry, adding in the scraps from before if needed to make large enough, and use this to line the pie dish. Trim the edges.
- Defrost the spinach according to packet instructions and squeeze out excess liquid.
- Preheat oven to 350F/175C.
- Finely dice the onion and garlic. Warm the oil in a medium skillet over a medium heat and add the onion. Cook a couple minutes until softening then add the garlic. Cook a couple more minutes until onion is translucent.
- Add the spinach and nutmeg to the onion and stir well. Feel free to add a little salt and pepper as well, if you like. Set the pan aside to cool.
- Mix the ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan and 1 egg in a bowl. Add the cooled spinach mixture and mix well. Fill the pie dish and spread evenly.
- Use the back of a spoon to make 5 indents in the filling - you will probably need to make them deeper than you might think - then crack an egg into each of them. Brush around the edge of the bottom pastry layer with water then carefully put the top layer of pastry over the pie. Press together the edges and put two slits as air holes in the middle. Lightly brush the top with milk.
- Bake the pie for approximately 50 minutes until golden brown. Allow to cool a little before slicing. Serve slices warm or cold.

SPINACH RICOTTA PIE
Delicious! From Rachael Ray Magazine August 2008. My only addition was to make it in a deep dish pie crust. Not heavy or cheesy, yet substantial enough - this is a great summer dinner! TIP - to avoid a soggy pie crust on the bottom, bake on a cookie sheet in the oven, not the regular grates.
