Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced red onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
-
Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the skillet from heat and let the spinach mixture cool slightly.
-
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into an oval or rectangular shape, about 1/4 inch thick. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet.
-
Spread the spinach mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a border around the edges. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese, mozzarella cheese, chopped dill, parsley, and mint over the top of the spinach mixture.
-
Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, creating a rustic crust. Brush the edges of the dough with the beaten egg for a golden finish. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the crust.
-
Bake the Spinach and Herb Pide in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Remove the pide from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy this delicious dish warm, either as a main course or cut into smaller pieces for sharing.
