Cottage cheese and spinach pie instructions

1. Beat ONE egg with softened butter with mixer, add flour and mix untill it falls into crumbles. Put more flour if there are no crumbles..
2. Pour the crumbles onto the greased pan. Pat the crumbles slightly so they are not falling everywhere. Then put spinach over it. I used frozen spinach, poured boiling water over them to soften first then soaked the water..
3. I blended cottage cheese with FOUR eggs, dill and spring onions in a food processor and poured the mix over spinach, smooth the surface with a spoon and bake in the oven for 30-40 min..
4. Serve with fromage frache, Greek or Turkish yogurt..

Add beaten agges and combine well. Unfold the filo leaves and cut in half, crosswise. Wrap and refreeze one half of the filo. Drained cottage cheese and mixed in with the spinach, then poured the whole thing into a greased pie plate. Ok so it may not look like the spinach pie you might remember from a bakery, a stuffed dough with spinach it, but it is a delicious spinach "pie".
