Everything Vegetarian
the dough :
• 3 cups all purpose flour
• 1 cup warm water
• 2 tbl. spoon oil
• 1/2 tbl spoon oregano
• dash of salt
Mix ingredients; knead for about 2-3 minutes; adding flour until it doesn't stick to the hands - separate into 3 equal parts the filling :
• about one pound of thawed frozen spinach
• a couple of chopped green shallots (can replace with 1/3 white onion)
• 1/2 cup finely chopped parsley
• salt, pepper, thyme
Mix ingredients
the assembly :
Roll out the 3 dough balls - so that each one is a bit bigger than your 8X12 baking pan - the amount of dough, for that size will give you the right thickness
Place the first layer on the greased pan, with ends hanging over the pan rim - add half the filling
Follow on with the second dough layer -add the rest of the filling
Finish off with the last dough layer; fold the dough layers together
Pluck a few holes, making sure you go through the second layer of dough
Bake for 3/4 hour at around 400F
If you like a moister pie add a couple tbl spoons of extra virgin olive oil to each layer.
