I made these pie’s one day basically when I had left over gozleme filling and I thought they were great. I must admit they are much nicer as gozleme. But we can’t always have the time for gozleme dough. So this is a quick substitute.
Ingredients; (makes 12 pies)
- 6 sheets of ready-made puff pastry
- 2 x cups of spinach
- 1 x onion, diced
- 1 clove of garlic, minced
- ½ cup cream cheese
- ½ cup Feta cheese
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 egg, whisked
- ¼ cup black seeds or poppy seeds
- Salt and pepper
- ½ cup milk
Method;
To make the filling fry onion and garlic until browned and cooked through. Add spinach for the last couple minutes of cooking just to wilt the spinach down. Whilst this mixture is still hot put it in a large mixing bowl and to it add the feta cheese cream cheese and Parmesan and mix well. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper as required. Set this mixture aside.
Pre heat your oven to 180 degrees. Line a flat baking tray with greaseproof paper. Lay out all of the sheets of pastry and cut 4 rounds from each sheet. Place two heaped spoonful’s of the filling in the middle of one round, leaving 1cm space around the edge. Egg wash around the edge of the pastry and top with another round of pastry. Pinch the edges of the pastry with a fork to ensure they will stay together. Repeat until all mixture and pastry used. Brush the top of each pie with some milk and sprinkle with the seeds. 
Bake in pies in batches in the oven for approximately 30 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown. Serve hot.
