Prepare a filling of cream cheese, spinach, and artichoke hearts, wrap them in strips of filo pastry, and bake to create golden, crispy Mediterranean-style pastries. Keep the dough and assembled pastries covered while you work to prevent them from drying out.

1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.
2/3 cup (st.) - 160 ml.
1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.

1/4 cup (st.) - 60 ml.
1 tablespoon (tbsp) - 15 ml.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a large skillet, melt 110g of butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and onion and cook until the onion is soft, 2-3 minutes. Add the artichoke hearts and stir. Pour in the cream and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and let the liquid thicken for 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Add the cream cheese and Parmesan and mix until smooth. Add the spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, until completely wilted. Let the mixture cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes.

  3. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside. Melt the remaining 110g (4 oz) butter in a small saucepan.
  4. On a clean work surface, cut the phyllo sheets in half and trim to make 18 rectangles measuring 14 x 22 cm. Layer 3 phyllo sheets, brushing the surface of each layer with melted butter (cover the remaining dough with plastic wrap and a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out).
  5. Spoon 1/4 cup of filling about 2.5 cm from the bottom edge of the rectangle. Fold a corner of the dough over the filling to create a triangular pocket. Continue folding, maintaining the triangle shape, to form a tight patty. Place it seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining phyllo sheets and filling until you have 6 patties.
  6. Brush the pies with the remaining butter and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm or let cool to room temperature.
