Ingredients
Method
Filling:
- Roughly chop the spinach.
- Place olive oil and spinach in a skillet over medium heat.
- Stir the spinach until it is just wilted. Remove from heat.
- Place the spinach into a strainer over a bowl. Set aside while you work on the rest of the filling and the spinach releases the liquid.
- Dice the onions and place into a bowl.
- Add sumac, salt, lemon juice, pomegranate molasses, and pine nuts to the onions. Mix until everything is combined.
- Remove the spinach from the strainer. It should be as dry as possible. (use paper towels to soak up excess liquid)
- Add spinach to the onion mixture and stir until everything is incorporated.
Dough:
- Preheat the oven to 325 F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Make the dough according to the "Savory Pastry Dough" recipe (linked above).
- Flour your surface and roll out the dough to 1/8 inch thick.
- Using a 4 inch circle cookie cutter, cut out as many circles as possible.
- Remove the access dough.
- In the center of one circle, place 1 tablespoon of filling.
- Pinch together 2 edges of the circle over the center of the filling.
- Then bring the last edge to meet them at the center. Seal the sides so they form a pyramid.
- Brush the pastry with egg wash (optional).
- Place in oven for about 20 minutes or until golden.
Notes
*Make sure to remove all water from the spinach.
*Carefully seal the pastry so it does not open up in the oven.
To freeze:
Fully cook, place in airtight container or ziplock, and freeze. When reheating, place in oven at 325 F until hot, or thaw at room temperature.
