This Spanakopita recipe is a classic Greek pie that you will wish you made sooner! It features fresh spinach, herbs, onion, garlic, and feta cheese, all wrapped up in layers of golden, buttery, and flaky phyllo dough! Crispy, savory, and comforting, each bite is full of flavor and is a guaranteed hit at the dinner table. It's so full of flavor and a favorite dish from my childhood. You can make this whenever you have some time then freeze them and bake from frozen!

As an African, I in fact *do* have an INCONCEIVABLY large skillet 😂😂😅 I was already excited to see your take on my fave Greek dish, but now I'm even more excited that I won't have to make it in batches 😂

@missoldskool Год назад

😂

@sassyperry6382 Год назад

Are Africans known for having large skillets?

@alb91878 Год назад

Lol, I saw a video once on how they make the sheets from scratch and I was blown away! Holy hell, it would take me a month to make that and it would turn out horrible! What a laborious task!!!

@kaktusdesiberie7196 Год назад

@@sassyperry6382Yes actually. They are very family oriented societies and often they cook for a lot of people. If you go to an African grocery store and they happen to have the large pots you’ll see. 😊

@daigbogu Год назад

Married into an African family, I too have a comically large skillet 😅

I would watch your videos even if I had no intention of making the dish. Both your recipes and your presence are remarkably lovable.

I agree; I can't get enough of this channel!!!

@seashells5181 2 месяца назад

Thank you for your excellent instructions for making that delicious Spanakopita!! Your son’s visit was the highlight of the show! 🥰. His way of stroking the butter was instructive since I probably would have stroked the butter on the same way as he did!, 🥰

@hannahroberts6295 11 месяцев назад

I really like using chard instead of spinach. More depth of flavour. I steam it till it wilts and squeeze out excess moisture. I even include tender white stems chopped finely.

@Jackster310 6 месяцев назад

Totally agree with your assessment of garlic amounts in recipes. I always make our version of spanakopita for Easter and add chopped fresh jalepenos for a little kick.

@KatieGoesPlatinum 4 месяца назад

Thank you! I've been making spanakopita for years, but just needed a refresher on how to assemble it properly. i liked your idea of tucking in the edges like pie dough - worked beautifully!

Do u ever add creme cheese or ricotta?

@sashagreenly.realtor 11 месяцев назад

Just got it into the oven...I was doing great until the last few layers then I was getting tired and thought, omg, I can't believe I'm making this on a weeknight...You make it look so easy and I felt so inspired so I made this with a rotisserie chicken and sliced beets on the side...My son is going to be so happy when he walks in the door as this is normally only something I would do for a holiday. I'm so proud of myself!! Thank you!!

@theodorev666 14 дней назад

You might just be the most likeable person I've ever seen on RU-vid! The recipe isn't bad either, here in Greece even the supermarket spanakopita is delicious, I make sure to have one every day 😁

@lesliecurtin8911 Год назад

My Armenian grandmother DID make her own phyllo dough. She had a long table in the kitchen and a long broomstick handle she used as a rolling pin. It was so much fun watching her roll out the dough. She made her own until a neighbor told her they sold it at the local market, Also just watched your stuffed grape leaves episode. I make vegetarian ones knows as Yalangi Dolma- no meat, just rice, onions and some spices. My family and friends love them and, just saying, at the last big family party, my dolma won out over the caterer's!

@sazji 11 месяцев назад

I make my own. It's a skill that takes some practice, but the difficulty is overstated actually, and it's SO worth it, as I'm sure you remember. :-)

@DiaDia18 Год назад

Very nice recipie John! They looks amazing! I love Spanakopita and we eat them a lot! In Cyprus we love a lot the Greek food! I think for me the Greek food is the best! Have a nice day and good weekend! Have a good week! 👍👏🍴

This is the best Spanakopita recipe I have come across on RU-vid,very clear instructions and simple ,no fuss techniques.I keep coming back to this channel though I wish he does not talk too much,it drives me mad sometimes!!! I hate it that he talks too much but I am a subscriber and I bought his two books😊😊

@dww2006 Год назад

People think it’s complicated but it’s not, just takes time but so are lots of other recipes. You make it look quite simple. 🇨🇦🇨🇦

@christinagedeon7807 Год назад

I’ve used this same recipe but I don’t pre-cook the spinach. I chop up fresh spinach and add to cooked onions, garlic and herbs and feta….and then add the eggs. Comes out great every time! Also, using Ghee butter prevents the philly from puffing up (no water in Ghee). Thanks for sharing this recipe!

@judyroberts7815 Год назад

I’ve made your spanakopita SO MANY TIMES this summer and served with your Greek salad, my family loves! And yes please, I hope you do a Galaktoboureko video 😊❤

@pameladamaris3204 9 месяцев назад

This was the very first dish I made as a new cook when I was in my early 20's, (possibly late teens). I never learned to cook from my mom as she wasn't a cook. She did cook, but hated it, consequently, we ate out A LOT! I was in my first apartment and bought my first cookbook, and for some insane reason, I chose this as my first dish I would attempt to make. I truly enjoyed making it, and it was sooooo good. That was when I realized that, unlike my mom, I enjoyed cooking. ☺️

@floralmist6824 3 месяца назад

Hi! Watching my first of your videos and I'm very impressed. You make it fun but calm and not dramatic. I love baklava and make it during the holidays and hand some out to everyone. Half of the people don't eat it! "If I've never heard of it and don't know what to make of it, I'm not eating it." Seriously? You're literally missing out on a gold mine of rich heaven! Not many people I know are familiar with Greek food, but it's my favorite besides Japanese and a big juicy steak! So, I will be exploring your recipes. I have a new subscription!

@dvarn59 Год назад

Oh, the Greek in me is loving this. I don’t make Spanakopita because nobody in my house eats it. But I do love it, at all of our Greek family get togethers this was a staple. Of course we alway had stuffed grape leaves, which I make often, as well as Pastitsio. My yia yia loved to spoil us with all of the Greek food.

@kuroneko3896 Год назад

Perhaps you could make the triangle style to freeze and bake as your own personal side dish. I'm going to try it in a pizza pop size for myself! 😋

@barbp2768 Год назад

Looks amazingly delicious! I married into the Greek culture and have loved cooking Greek food for years. Volunteering at the ‘Church Festival’ is a great way to learn different ways of cooking. Spanakopita is a favorite of many. When our son was in college, I made Spanakopita and cut each piece to fit in a zip top plastic sandwich bag. He’d stack the bags in his mini fridge freezer. He’d heat them in his small microwave. I made a disposable cooler for his long drive to campus. I lined a box with newspaper and used small plastic containers (restaurant leftover) of frozen water to keep everything cold. Thank you for this video!
