Description

A quick and satisfying dish featuring savory spinach and tangy feta wrapped in crisp, golden tortillas.


Ingredients

  • Fresh spinach – 200 g (7 oz), chopped

  • Feta cheese – 150 g (5 oz), crumbled

  • Mozzarella cheese – 120 g (1 cup), shredded

  • Small onion – 1, finely chopped

  • Garlic cloves – 2, minced

  • Olive oil – 2 tablespoons

  • Ground black pepper – 1/2 teaspoon

  • Dried oregano – 1 teaspoon

  • Flour tortillas – 6 medium (20 cm / 8-inch)

  • Butter or olive oil – 1 tablespoon, for cooking


Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the onion until soft, then add garlic and cook briefly.

  • Add spinach and cook until wilted and moisture evaporates. Season with pepper and oregano.

  • Combine feta and mozzarella in a bowl, then mix in the spinach filling.

  • Spread filling on half of each tortilla, fold, and cook in a lightly greased skillet until golden on both sides.

  • Rest briefly, slice, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Drain spinach thoroughly to avoid soggy tortillas.

  • Cook over medium heat for even browning.

  • Best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated in a skillet for crispness.
