Doussis
a light, low-fat dish, brilliant for lunch at work served hot,
warm, or cold
the dough :
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 tbl spoons oil
- 1/2 spoon oregano
- dash of salt
Mix ingredients; knead for about 2-3 minutes; adding flour to until
it doesn't stick to the hands - separate into 3 equal parts the
filling :
- about one pound of thawed frozen spinach- i prefer the chopped
leaves kind
- a couple of chopped green shallots (can replace with 1/3 white
onion)
- 1/2 cup finely chopped parsley
- salt, pepper, thyme
Mix ingredients
the assembly :
Roll out the 3 dough balls - so that each one is a bit bigger
than your baking pan (i use 8x12 in.) - the amount of dough, for
that size will give you the right thickness
Place the first layer on the greased pan, with ends hanging
over the pan rim - add half the filling
Follow on with the second dough layer -add the rest of the filling
Finish off with the last dough layer; fold the dough layers
together
Pluck a few holes, making sure you go through the second layer
of dough
Bake for 3/4 hour at around 400F
