••••QUICK AND EASY SPANAKOPITA ๐ฅง(SPINACH PIE)••(GREECE)๐ฌ๐ท!!
I know I already mentioned this, but it bears repeating.
Phyllo dough dries out really quickly. Once it dries and cracks it is unusable.
I like to keep my phyllo dough on a silicon mat next to me while I work.
I loosely cover it with plastic wrap and a damp towel.
This keeps the dough from drying out.
When working with phyllo, make sure you aren’t distracted, you will need to work quickly with this dough.

For the filling,
I use frozen spinach but fresh, finely chopped spinach (this is a great way to use up fresh spinach!) can be used as long as it has been cooked down and wilted.
If using frozen, be sure to drain it completely or else you will end up with a soggy pie.
Ricotta cheese can be used in place of the cottage cheese in this recipe.
Feel free to mix in green onions, shallots, or fresh herbs like parsley and dill.
While spinach and feta are the perfect combo, feel free to use goat cheese instead of feta.
Cooked leeks can also be used with the spinach.

๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐Don't drain all of the pasta water: Pasta water is a great addition to the sauce. Add about a ¼-1/2 cup or ladle full of water to your sauce before adding the pasta. The salty, starchy water not only adds flavor but helps glue the pasta and sauce together; it will also help thicken the sauce.
