  1. My yiayiathes (in-law) use mint rather than parsley. I add chopped green chilli. It’s such a wonderful dish because you can throw in herbs you love

  2. I’m taking notes to try this delicious recipe “spanakopita” in never enough for me .. ευχάριστο Σοφία καλό μάθημα

  3. Thank you for this recipe and telling us why you need to add oil between every sheet. No one else told me why!!! I love the rice and the water trick on top! I am going to make this tomorrow evening! We just came back from Santorini and I was only able to try this at the airport, sadly. AND for breakfast!!!! It was the best Spanakopita I have ever eaten!!!

  4. Θα μπορούσε να μπει και τραχανάς αντί του ρυζιού καθώς δίνει μία ευχάριστη γεύση στις πίτες.

  5. Kalitera, I have eaten this so many times but on Thursday I will try and make it as good as you do. Don't tell your yaa yaa though, mine will probably not be as good! Thankyou. UK.

  6. Is spanakopita usually eaten warm, room temperature, or refrigerator cold? Also, asuming there is any left, what us the best way to store it?
    Thank you for this video, it looks delicious!

  7. I'm glad to see actual Greeks on YT showing us how to make it for real. The top search results for cooking are usually not so good. Thanks for your channel!

  8. Thank you for the recipe!
    I am going to make this with swiss chard from my garden instead of spinach. I know that is not the standard, but I need to do something with all this chard!

  9. Yasou Sofia – Thank you for this – Im going to start making mine in 20 minutes – Ive never cooked Spakakopita before but Im going to give it a go – Again thank you
