Spinach in puffed pastry
Prompt: What is your favorite way to use veggies?{BCoF)

To start with I am NOT a gourmet chef in the kitchen. I merely condone the fact that I have to eat to stay alive therefore I have to cook. In fact I am a lousy cook.

But when I cook veggies, which is as often as I can because it’s healthy and there is a lot of iron and proteins in it; it’s nutritious, I use my steam pan. Fill the pan with water, on top a pan with holes in it in which you put the clean veggies and steam away. Everybody can do it. *Ha*

Save for three weeks ago when I was doing this review for WdC. I was so focused at my computer I totally forgot the cooking until I smelled something funny. And YES, my pan was cooking without water because it evaporated, therefore pan black and useless.*Headbang*

I have to buy another steam pan soon. If I got the time to do so, quiet busy at the moment. Luckily there are internet shops.

One of my better receipts: Spinach with puffed pastry in the oven. Delicious. Very easy to make.

1. Preheat oven to 375. Line a baking sheet with parchment (preferable) but you can use aluminum foil with a light spray of cooking oil.
2. Melt butter and cook onions for a few minutes, until soft. Add garlic and cook for another minute.
3. Beat eggs in medium bowl. Add cooked onion, spinach, feta, parmesan, bread crumbs. Add salt, pepper, & nutmeg. Mix well with fork.
4. Place one unfolded sheet of puff pastry on the parchment or sprayed aluminum foil. Spread the spinach mixture over the pastry, leaving a border of one inch all around the edges. Keep the spinach flat; do not pile high.
5. Brush the edges with the egg wash made with the last egg. Cover with the second sheet of pastry that has been slightly flattened with a rolling pin to one inch bigger than the first sheet. (This ensures all the spinach will be covered). Press edges together with fingertips or fork, making sure mixture is sealed well. Brush just the top with egg wash, careful not to drip any down the sides. Cut a few slits in the top with a sharp knife to allow steam to escape.
6. Bake 30-40 minutes, until golden brown. Can be served hot or at room temperature.
