Serving Size 12
Equipment
- 1 frying pan
- 1 baking tray
Ingredients
- ½ yellow onion diced
- 550 grams fresh spinach chopped
- 3 green onions sliced
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 teaspoon dill dried
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- ¼ teaspoon lemon juice
- 130 grams feta
- 12 spring roll sheets thawed
- oil for brushing
Hot Honey
- ¼ cup honey
- 2 tablespoons sambal oelek
Instructions
- Thaw the spring roll wrappers on the counter for an hour.
- In a small bowl, mix together the honey and sambal oelek. Set aside.
- Heat a pan on medium heat with a bit of neutral oil. Add the onions and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned.
- Add a splash of water to deglaze the pan, and stir, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook for another 5-10 minutes. Add another splash of water and gently scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. The onions should be soft and browned.
- Add the spinach, green onion, and dried dill. Don't worry if your pan is almost overflowing with spinach. It will shrink while cooking. Stir the mixture together and cook for a few minutes, until the spinach is dark green and significantly shrunken.
- Clear a spot in the middle of the pan and add the garlic. Cook for just 15-30 seconds or until fragrant, then stir. Remove the pan from the heat, add a squeeze of lemon, the salt and pepper, and stir to combine.
- Let the mixture cool for about 10 minutes, then add in the crumbled feta and stir to combine. Set aside.
- Heat the oven to 400°F/200°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unwrap the thawed spring roll sheets and cover with a damp cloth to keep them from drying. Place one wrapper in front of you, so it looks like a diamond. Place a portion of the filling (about 1 1/2 tablespoons) onto the centre of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold the two sides into the center. Then tightly roll towards the top corner, leaving an inch of wrapper. Wet the remaining edge with water, then roll the rest of the way.
- Repeat the process and transfer each spring roll to the baking sheet. Brush with a neutral oil before baking for 20-25 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown. Serve with hot honey.
Notes
