Spinach And Feta Filo Bundt Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C Squeeze excess moisture from spinach.
• Combine with remaining ingredients.
• Place a sheet of 'filo' pastry on the bench. Spray lightly with the olive oil spray.
• Top with another sheet of pastry.
• Cut into 5 strips.
• Place a tablespoon of filling at the bottom of each strip.
• Fold across diagonally, and continue folding to the top of the strip.
• Place on a baking tray and cook for 20 Minutes or until crisp and golden.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the middle and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Place half the spinach in a larger clean kitchen towel and wring out any excess moisture. Transfer to a large bowl. Repeat with the remaining spinach and transfer to the bowl.
• Melt 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) of the butter in a large high-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions and garlic and cook, stirring, until tender, about 3 minutes. Add the flour and stir until smooth and lightly toasted, about 2 minutes. Pour in the milk and add a large pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the mixture thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the spinach, remove from the heat and stir to combine. Transfer the spinach mixture back into the bowl. Let cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Fold the feta, parsley and dill into the spinach mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the eggs.
• Line the Bundt pan with phyllo: Melt the remaining 3 sticks butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Brush the inside of 10-cup metal Bundt pan with some of the butter.
• Unfold the phyllo dough and cover with a large damp cloth. Working with 1 sheet at a time, line the Bundt pan with half of the phyllo, brushing each sheet with melted butter after placing it in the pan. Cover the entire bottom and up the sides of the pan with the sheets; they will overlap and hang over the edge of the pan. The hole in the middle of the pan will be covered.
• Fill the phyllo-lined pan with the spinach mixture and fold over the overhanging pieces of phyllo so they lie flat on top of the filling.
• Cover the filling with phyllo: Working with 1 sheet at a time, cover the filling with the remaining phyllo sheets, brushing each sheet with melted butter after placing it in the Bundt pan. The phyllo will hang over the edge of the pan and cover the hole in the center. Push any of the overhang down and along the inside of the pan. Cut away the phyllo covering the hole with a small paring knife.
• Put the Bundt pan on a baking sheet and bake until the pastry becomes slightly domed and deep golden brown, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Let cool for about 10 minutes then invert the pie onto a cutting board. Slice with a serrated knife.

Steps:

• Put the spinach into your biggest pan with the water, over a low heat. Put the lid on and allow it to steam for until wilted - taking the lid off and giving it a good stir every minute or so. Drain the spinach and roughly chop it. In a large frying pan, saute the onion in olive oil until soft. Add the garlic, chilli flakes, lemon zest salt and pepper, and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the chopped herbs and cook until they've wilted, then switch off the heat. Add the chopped spinach and mix through, then leave to cool for 30 minutes. Once the filling has cooled, beat the eggs and add them to the spinach,. Crumble the feta in and mix it all together. Preheat the oven to 200C /190C fan. Brush the inside of the bundt tin with melted butter and sprinkle the sesame seeds in the bottom. Lay a sheet of filo with one corner in the middle of the bundt tin (half of the sheet will be hanging over the outside edge of the tin for you to fold in at the end) then brush that with melted butter. Be generous with the butter as you layer the filo around the tin, each one half covering the last but clockwise so that last sheet half covers the first. Brush butter over each sheet as you layer it up. Spoon the filling into the bundt tin and then fold each sheet of filo back over the tin to seal it, layering with butter brushed over each sheet. Fold the inside edges in as neatly as possible, brush the whole top with butter then cook for 45 minutes. Take the pie out of the oven and carefully flip it onto a flat baking sheet. Tuck in any bits of pastry and bake for another 15 minutes out of the tin, until golden brown all over. Leave to stand for 10 minutes before cutting into slices to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Spray an 8x8 glass baking dish with the cooking spray.
• In a medium bowl, stir together everything except the phyllo.
• Lay one sheet of phyllo in the baking dish, allowing the edges to hang over the sides of the dish.
• Spray with cooking spray.
• Repeat with 4 more sheets of phyllo, spraying and alternating the direction of each sheet.
• Spoon spinach mixture on top of the prepared phyllo in the pan.
• Spray and layer remaining 5 sheets just the same as you did before.
• Roll edges of dough to form a rim.
• Spray the top.
• Bake for 35-45 minutes or until golden brown.
• Let stand 5-15 minutes before cutting and serving.
