Broccoli and spinach pie
10 servings
75 minutes
Broccoli and spinach pie is a delicate combination of puff pastry and rich vegetable filling. This recipe is inspired by European cuisine, where greens play a key role in creating light and healthy dishes. Broccoli adds softness and a slight sweetness to the filling, while spinach complements it with a fresh, slightly spicy flavor. The mixture of eggs, cream, and sour cream makes the pie surprisingly juicy. Sesame seeds and aromatic spices like cumin or caraway finish the composition, giving the dish a subtle Eastern note. This pie is perfect for a light dinner or lunch and is good both hot and cold. It can be served with yogurt or sour cream sauce to enhance its rich flavor.
