3 Tbsp olive oil

3 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound baby spinach
1 large egg
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely
chopped

1 1/2 tsp coarse salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, and cook until softened, about 8 minutes. Add garlic, and cook, stirring, 1 minute.

Top with 3 more buttered sheets. Fold in sides. Butter remaining 4 sheets; crumple over top. Bake until dark golden, about 40 minutes.

Serves 4.
