Spinach Pie Method

Preheat the oven to very hot. Steam the spinach until just wilted then drain on some absorbent paper then squeeze out excess liquid. In a small frying pan heat the oil and add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion softens. Combine the spinach, onion mixture, rind, herbs and cheese in a large bowl and mix well. Oil two oven trays and place in the oven for about 5 minutes to heat. Place a sheet of pastry on each tray and divide the spinach mixture between sheets leaving a 3cm border. Using a metal spatula fold pastry roughly over the edge of filling. Bake the Spinach Pie in the very hot oven about 20 minutes or until pastry browns.
