INSTRUCTIONS
Canadian Living, December 1996. Olive Oil Pastry: In bowl, sift together flour, salt and baking powder. Whisk together milk, oil and egg; add to dry ingredients all at once. Using fingers or mixer with dough hook, blend until liquid is absorbed and dough has texture of earlobe, adding up to 2 tablespoon (25ml) more flour if necessary. Transfer to bowl; cover and refrigerate for at least Knead any oil back into dough; divide into quarters. On lightly floured surface, flatten one of the pieces into a disk; turn to flour other side. Roll out into 8- or 9-inch (20-23cm) circle about 1/8-inch (3mm) thick. Pastry will shrink slightly but can be stretched by hand before baking. Transfer to waxed paper. Repeat with remaining dough, stacking between waxed paper. Spinach Feta Filling: In bowl, combine spinach, leeks, feta and mozzarella cheese, currants, dill, parsley and pepper; mix well. Beat eggs with cornstarch; stir into spinach mixture until thoroughly mixed. Place one of the sheets of pastry on lightly floured surface. Spoon about 1 cup (250ml) spinach mixture onto lower half; fold upper half over and pinch edges to seal. Place on greased baking sheet. Repeat to make 4 pies. Glaze: Beat egg with milk; brush over top of pies. Bake in 400F (200C) oven for 20 to 22 minutes or until golden brown and crusty.
