Instructions
- 1
Knead a soft dough with the flour, yeast, warm water, half of the olive oil, and half of the salt.
- 2
Let the dough rise for 60 minutes, until doubled.
1 hr60:00 - 3
Chop the spinach, rub it with the remaining salt, and squeeze out its liquid.
- 4
Finely chop the onion and mix it with the spinach, sumac, lemon juice, pine nuts, and remaining olive oil.
- 5
Divide the dough into small balls, add the filling, and close them into triangles.
- 6
Bake the triangular pastries at 200°C for 18 minutes, until the edges brown.
18 min18:00 - 7
Mix the strained yogurt with dried mint and serve beside the warm fatayer.
💡 Tip: After chopping the spinach, rub it with salt for 5 minutes and squeeze out the liquid; a watery filling opens the triangular seams in the oven.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the warm fatayer on a mezze plate with strained yogurt mint sauce and olives if desired.
