Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan160°C/gas 4. Wilt the spinach in a large pan over a low heat. Allow to cool, then drain well, squeezing out the excess liquid with your hands.
- Melt a knob of butter in a frying pan and add the onion. Cook for 5 minutes, until soft. Stir in the garlic and cook for a further minute.
- Remove from the heat and add to a bowl with the spinac, feta, pine nuts and eggs. Mix together and season well. Spoon into the base of a 1-litre baking dish.
- Brush 4-6 filo pastry sheets with melted butter, lightly scrunch and lay over the spinach mixture. Sprinkle with ½ tsp caraway seeds and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, until the pastry is crisp and golden.
- Serve with a juicy tomato and red onion salad.

Great recipe, because I wanted an easy recipe without a million ingredients. I used reasonably finely chopped up silverbeet. It turned out full of flavour, probably a little saltier than spinach, which is ok. Try it!
