Collection: Vegetarian Recipes

Ingredients

  • The Dough:
  • Ingredients (use vegan versions):
  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 tbl spoons oil
  • 1/2 spoon oregano
  • dash of salt

Directions

Mix ingredients; knead for about 2-3 minutes; adding flour to until it
doesn't stick to the hands - separate into 3 equal parts.

The Filling:

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

- about one pound of thawed frozen spinach- i prefer the chopped leaves kind
- a couple of chopped green shallots (can replace with 1/3 white onion)
- 1/2 cup finely chopped parsley
- salt, pepper, thyme

Directions:

Mix ingredients.

The Assembly:

Roll out the 3 dough balls- so that each one is a bit bigger than your
baking pan (i use 8x12 in.)- the amount of dough, for that size will
give you the right thickness.

Place the first layer on the greased pan, with ends hanging over the
pan rim - add half the filling.

Follow on with the second dough layer -add the rest of the filling.

Finish off with the last dough layer; fold the dough layers together.

Pluck a few holes, making sure you go through the second layer of
dough.

Bake for 3/4 hour at around 400F.
