Topic: Bosnian Pie with Spinach or Cheese :D

[Emilee]

Ok  :-D

I promised some of the sisters here I will post up the recipe u can make

this is verry common in bosnia, and everyone makes it like a coffee  :lol:

soo..I will try my best to translate it in english  :-P


Pita ( Pie)

flour 
 washed fresh spinach 
1  egg 
butter or olive oil
1 1/2  teaspoons salt 

 low-fat plain yogurt (optional) 

Preheat oven to 350.
Wash and drain spinach.
Chop spinach and put in a big glass bowl.
Add salt and mix with hands.
Leave the spinach to sit for about 10 minutes to allow the salt to draw out the water from the vegetable.
The water in spinach will make the filling bitter so do not skip this step.
Drain the spinach by either sqeezing it bit by bit with your hand over the sink or by spinning several times in a salad spinner.
Transfer drained spinach into a new bowl.
Add egg, and sour cream.
Beat the eggs, flour and salt in a bowl and mix well.
Make little balls of flour mixture with your hands and leave it for about 30 minutes.
Brush with oil, using either your hands or a pastry brush.
Repeat until dough is 6 or 7 layers.
Add a skim of filling with hands and spread evenly.
Repeat steps until the pie reaches the top of the pan or you run out of ingredients.

Place pie in the oven, uncovered, about 45 minutes.
The top becomes flaky.



Bake for 15 more minutes.
This dish can be served warm or room temperature.
It is traditionally served with a yogurt beverage which is easily replicated by mixing the plain yogurt with milk, in equal parts.
Enjoy!  8-)
