Cumin Spinach Turnovers

Ingredients:

  • 1 package of phyllo pastry sheets
  • 1 cup cooked spinach, chopped
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, and cook until onions are softened and translucent.
  3. Stir in chopped spinach, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
  4. Unwrap phyllo pastry sheets and cover with a damp towel to prevent them from drying out.
  5. Place one sheet of phyllo on a work surface and lightly brush with olive oil. Top with another sheet of phyllo and brush with more olive oil.
  6. Cut the layered phyllo dough widthwise into 4 equal strips.
  7. Place a tablespoon of the spinach mixture at the bottom corner of each phyllo strip and fold diagonally to form a triangle. Continue folding in a triangle pattern until all the phyllo is used.
  8. Place the turnovers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and brush lightly with olive oil.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the phyllo is golden brown.
