Spanakopita (spinach pastries)

• Wash bunch of spinach thoroughly (soaking it in water to eliminate the sand)
  
• Chop the spinach very finely & sprinkle it with salt
  
• Once the salt has extracted some of the moisture, squeeze the spinach dry with fists
  
• Chop up fresh spring onions finely & add them to the spinach
  
• Crush in mild Greek fetta (or ricotta) cheese - several handfuls
  
• Mix in 2-3 eggs
  
• Add salt & pepper

• Layer filo pastry in a greased pan, brushing every 3^rd sheet with olive oil
  
• After ~ 8 sheets (or until sufficient), place the filling on the pastry without placing olive oil on that top layer
  
• Finally repeat a mirrored layers of pastry on top of the filling
  
• Cook in 180 degree oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown
