Zarpat Fatayer — GalilEAT

Ingredients:

• Dough

500 grams of whole flour

1 teaspoon salt

½ cup olive oil

½ cup of water

• Preparation of the Dough:

Add salt to the flour and mix well. Add the olive oil and mix well then add half of the water.

Put the dough for about 10 minutes, adding a little more water each time, until you get a smooth, soft dough. Cover the dough and set it aside for at least an hour.

Zaraphat usually prepares the dough the day before.

Divide the dough into balls 5 cm wide

• Filling:

2 spinach packs, preferably large leaves.

1 large onion, cut into small cubes

1/2 cup olive oil

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon minced black pepper

• Fatayer Preparation:

Separate the spinach from the stalks and rinse well. Cut the spinach into large pieces.

Transfer the spinach and onion cubes to a large bowl and add the olive oil and salt and black pepper and mix. It is important that the olive oil be very high quality.

Open each dough ball for a flat, thin circle. It is important to make sure that the dough is not too thick. Place a heaping tablespoon of the filling material on a semicircle of dough, pulling one side toward the middle. Continue like this with 2 more sides, leaving a large triangle. It’s important that everything is tightly closed.

Fry on an electric frying pan or even a skillet pan can be used on the stove. For 7 minutes on each side, until golden and crisp.
