Spinach and Feta Filo Pie

1 large onion, grated
1 large knob of butter plus extra for brushing on pastry
700g frozen spinach, defrosted
4 tbsp pine nuts, toasted
200g feta cheese, cubed
3 eggs
7 sheets filo pastry
Salt and pepper to taste

Melt butter in a pan, add onion and fry until softened. Squeeze the water out of the spinach and add to the pan. Add pine nuts, feta and eggs, season and mix thoroughly. Brush filo pastry with melted butter, lay four sheets in the bottom of a dish at right angles. Spoon the spinach mixture into the dish. Fold the filo pastry over. Cut the remaining pastry into pieces, scrunch them up and place on top, brush with butter. Bake for 40 minutes at 180 degrees centrigrade or until brown on top.



This was the first time I made this pie. It would make Popeye proud!
