Morning all peeps! May the Fourth be with you

If you were a Star Wars character, which one would you be. (I wasn't thinking of Jabba the Hut, honestly).

May the Fourth be with you.

Princess Leia, of course! Just a blonde version

You would be Jar Jar Binks, for sure!!

I would be that Stormtrooper that banged his head.

Colonel Ackbar

I thought you would be the Deathstar going by your user name.

*aims giant death ray* no no that's just a vicious rumour .....

Just on my way out but thought I would drop this in for anyone who fancies it. I went out to a Greek restaurant on Friday and was inspired to make that Spanakopista or whatever it is called. So I made one this morning, although I have used flaky and not filo pastry which I don't keep in stock.

Its just out of the oven and has turned out beautifully golden don't you think? Its still hot so watch your fingers.

oh my god i LOVE spanakopita!! Is it difficult to make i always assumed it was?

yum yum

No its a piece of cake with flaky. Filo is a bit of a pain because its fragile and fiddly to oil and work with. You can make a version using a flaky pastry sheet although this is made with a block of frozen flaky which I made a bit back rolled very thin.

The filling is just spinach, feta, spring onions and seasoning - I use celery salt, pepper, nutmeg and lemon.

Will I need to have the paramedics on stand by or are you a good baker?

Nobody has died yet!

Yet!

It's making my tummy rumble!!!
Had a dental op yesterday so can't eat anything but soup at the moment that sounds so delicious!!!

I will eat your portion for you then, as a kindness.
