How to Make Spinach Rice And Feta Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. If using a store-bought pie crust, place it in the pie plate.
  3. Thoroughly squeeze out excess moisture from 10 oz (280g) of fresh spinach.
  4. In a large saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Sauté 1/2 medium yellow onion (finely chopped) for 3 minutes until softened.
  5. Stir in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  6. Gradually whisk in 2 cups (475ml) of milk until smooth.
  7. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly thickened, stirring constantly.
  8. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup (190g) cooked long-grain rice, 4 oz (115g) crumbled feta cheese, 1 large egg, 1 egg white, and the squeezed spinach.
  9. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie plate. If using a store-bought crust, ensure the filling doesn't overflow.
  10. Sprinkle the top with 1/4 cup (20g) grated Parmesan cheese.
  11. Bake for 35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden.
  12. Turn on the broiler and broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the top is golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  13. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
