Puff Pastry Stuffed With Spinach And Cheese - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb puff pastry
1 lb fresh spinach
1/2 1/2 lb ricotta cheese or 1/2 farmer cheese
4 hard-boiled eggs
1 egg
1 teaspoon sugar
kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper

Preparation

Divide the puff pastry into 2 equal parts.
On a floured work surface, roll out 1 piece of the dough so that it is not too thin, but will cover a 8 x 8 inch baking dish (sides and bottom); grease pan and place rolled out puff pastry in dish.
Rinse spinach and cook, over medium heat, with salt, for about 5 minutes to wilt; remove, drain, and chop spinach.
In a bowl, combine spinach with cheese and spread the spinach mixture over the pastry in the baking dish; quarter the cooked eggs and scatter them over the spinach.
On a floured work surface, roll out other piece of pastry and place over spinach mixture; use a fork to seal like a crust.
Beat egg with sugar and brush over outer crust.
Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 45 minutes.
Serve with meat.
