Ingredients
- 1 lb pizza dough or 6 flour tortillas
- 4 cups spinach, chopped and squeezed dry
- 1 cup crumbled feta
- ½ onion, minced
- ½ tsp chili flakes + black pepper
- Butter or oil for the griddle
- Lemon wedges
Method
- Mix the filling: spinach, feta, onion, chili, pepper. Dry filling is law — wet spinach breaches the hull.
- Dough: roll thin ovals, filling on half, fold and seal like a giant empanada. Tortillas: filling between two, edges pressed.
- Griddle on medium with a little butter, pressing with a spatula, 3–4 minutes per side until blistered brown and crisp.
- Brush the hot surface with more butter because Turkish market ladies would.
- Slice into strips, lemon squeezed over. At Turkish markets, women roll these to order on floor-level griddles at hypnotic speed — your version needs only hunger.
