Spanaki Psimeno - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 lbs fresh spinach, washed dried and chopped
2 ounces butter
1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
14 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
5 eggs
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
black pepper
7 ounces gruyere cheese, thinly sliced

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 180C, 350F, gas mark 4 and grease a shallow ovenproof dish.
Heat half the butter in a large frying pan and saute half the spinach for 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly; drain in a colander, and press down with the back of a spoon so that most of the liquid is forced out; set aside and repeat with the remaining butter and spinach.
Place the drained spinach in a large mixing bowl together with the chopped dill, and Feta cheese.
In another bowl, beat together the eggs, flour and pepper; then add to the spinach mix well.
Spread the spinach mixture evenly in the greased dish and cover with the slices of Gruyere cheese; bake for 30 minutes until cheese is melted and the spinach mixture has set; serve hot.
