Spinach Ricotta Pie With A Hint Of Feta


We've got a new local dairy (in such a small country, local also means national), that makes some of the best cheeses (and soy milk and soy puddings). This recipe really showcases their ricotta and feta cheeses. This is a great vegetarian dish to serve, we usually have some kind of variation after the yom kippur fast day. I also like to add some za'atar in with the oregano.

Steps


Preheat the oven to 375 degrees f.
Heat the oil in a heavy pot over high heat.
Add the onion and saute until translucent , about 3 minutes.
Add the spinach in batches , if necessary , and saute until the ribbons are just wilted.
Lightly beat the ricotta and the eggs together in a bowl.
Add the spinach mixture , feta , oregano and salt and pepper.
Mix thoroughly.
Pour the batter into a greased 9 x 13 inch pan.
Bake for about 40 minutes , until the top is lightly browned.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
