SPINACH IN PUFF PASTRY
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Heat the butter in a saute pan and cook the onions over medium-low heat for 5 to 7 minutes, until tender. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Meanwhile, squeeze most of the water out of the spinach and place it in a bowl. Add the onion mixture, scallions, Gruyere, Parmesan, eggs, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and pignolis. Mix well.
- Unfold one sheet of puff pastry and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread the spinach mixture in the middle of the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border. Brush the border with the egg wash. Roll out the second piece of puff pastry on a floured board until it's an inch larger in each direction. Place the second sheet of pastry over the spinach and seal the edges, crimping them with a fork. Brush the top with egg wash but don't let it drip down the sides or the pastry won't rise. Make three small slits in the pastry, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the pastry is lightly browned. Transfer to a cutting board and serve hot.

Steps:
- Finely dice the Onion (1/2) and mince the Garlic (1 clove).
- Heat Olive Oil (1 tablespoon) in a pan over medium heat and sauté the diced onion until it turns soft and translucent. Then add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute or so.
- Add the Frozen Spinach (2 1/2 cup) in the pan, mix it with the onion and garlic. Cover the pan and let the spinach thaw and heat through for 4-5 minutes.
- Take the lid off and sauté the spinach till there's no more liquid in the pan. Turn off the heat and set the spinach aside to cool.
- While the spinach mixture is cooling, season the Ground Black Pepper (to taste) generously with Salt (to taste) and Ricotta Cheese (1 cup) in a large bowl.
- Add the cooked spinach mixture to the ricotta and mix it all well. Then, mix in the crumbled Feta Cheese (1 cup) to the spinach and ricotta.
- Make an egg wash by whisking Egg (1) and Water (1/2 tablespoon) together and set it aside for later.
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). To assemble the spinach rolls, cut the Puff Pastry (4) into three strips and gently rolled them to widen them slightly.
- Spoon the spinach mixture in the middle of the pastry dough leaving about 1/2- 3/4 of an inch on all sides.
- Place another sheet on top of the spinach mixture and using your fingers press down and seal the edges around the spinach, removing big air bubbles. Then use a fork to crimp the edges to seal it further.
- Brush the top of the pastry with egg wash.
- Lightly sprinkle the top with Sesame Seeds (to taste).
- Slash the rolls with a sharp knife to allow steam to escape while baking and cut the rolls however long you'd like them.
- Bake the spinach puff pastry rolls at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 18 to 22 minutes until they are golden and puffy!
- Serve and enjoy!

SPINACH ROLLS WITH PUFF PASTRY
A vegetarian version of mini sausage rolls but made with a spinach and feta filling. I used frozen spinach because it was a better buy than fresh at the time but the equivalent amount of fresh spinach, chopped and wilted, would do the job.

Steps:
- For 6 to 8 people, use the same filling of spinach and feta cheese as in the Creamy Fillo Spinach Pie (page 179).
- Cut 10 ounces puff pastry in half and roll each half into a long rectangle about 9 inches × 12 inches. Roll it out on a floured surface with a floured rolling pin. Keep turning the sheet of pastry over and over, dusting it with flour each time until it is very thin. Spread the filling in the middle in a band 9 to 9 1/2 inches wide to about 1 inch from the short ends at the top and bottom. Fold one side of the pastry over the filling, then fold the other side over the first, making a long parcel. Press the ends firmly to seal them. Place the two parcels on a greased baking dish, folded side down, brush with an egg yolk mixed with a drop of water, and bake in the oven preheated to 375°F for 35 minutes, until puffed up and golden. Serve hot.

Tips:
- Use high-quality frozen spinach for the best results. Fresh spinach can also be used, but it will need to be blanched and squeezed dry before using.
- If you don't have puff pastry on hand, you can use phyllo dough instead. Just be sure to brush the dough with melted butter before baking.
- Feel free to get creative with your fillings. You can add other vegetables, such as mushrooms, onions, or peppers, or even some cooked meat.
- For a vegetarian option, use crumbled tofu or tempeh instead of feta cheese.
- Serve the rolls warm or at room temperature. They can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or side dish.
