Ingredients

Kitchen Stuff

1 spring form (Ø 24 cm)

Directions

Let the filo pastry thaw about 2 hours in advance according to the instructions on the package.
Cut the fennel into pieces. Clean the leeks and cut into thin rings. Cut the spring onion into thin rings.
Heat the oil in the frying pan and fry the fennel, leeks and spring onions approx. 8 min. Without coloring.
Bring the spinach to a boil with a small piece of water and let it descend on high heat. Drain into a sieve and push out as much moisture as possible.
Preheat the oven to 200 ºC.
Grease the pie mold with oil. Line the bottom and wall of the mold with half of the dough sheets.
Brush each sheet thinly with the oil and let the sheets hang slightly over the edge.
Beat the eggs. Cut both cheeses into small cubes.
Cut the spinach coarsely. Slice the lettuce mixture and the dill finely.
Mix the spinach with the braised vegetables, spice mix, dill, the oil, ¾ of the eggs and the cubes of cheese.
Season with pepper, salt and nutmeg.
Scoop the vegetable filling into the mold and smooth. Fold the overhanging dough over the filling. Cover with the rest of the dough sheets.
Brush each sheet thinly with the oil. Fold the overhanging dough inwards along the cake wall.
Brush the top of the cake with the oil and sprinkle with water.
Fry the cake in the middle of the oven for about 45 minutes until golden brown and done.
Spread the top halfway through the baking time with the rest of the egg. Sprinkle the sesame seeds over it.
Serve hot or lukewarm.
