METHOD
1
Wilt the spinach
Sweat onion in a tablespoon of oil for three minutes. Add garlic and spinach and cook until wilted. Drain well and chop.
2
Build the filling
Stir pine nuts, oregano, lemon juice and salt into the spinach. Squeeze out any extra liquid.
3
Fold the triangles
Brush a filo sheet with oil, fold lengthways into a strip, place a spoonful of filling at one end and fold flag-style into a triangle.
4
Bake
Brush the triangles with oil, scatter sesame seeds and bake at 200C for twenty minutes until deeply golden.
VEG.ARMY TIP
Cover unused filo with a damp cloth — the sheets crack the moment they dry out.
