Pita de Spinaka

Description
Spinach pie for Passover. This cheese dish could be (but is not, traditionally) eaten during Passover, but it is usually prepared for other days.

Ingredients

 * 1½ lbs fresh spinach
 * 3 eggs, beaten
 * ½ tsp salt
 * ⅛ tsp pepper
 * ¼ cup matzoh meal
 * 4 sheets matzoh
 * water, cold
 * 2 tbsp oil
 * 1 tbsp walnut

Directions

 * 1) Coarsely chop the stems and leaves.
 * 2) Mix with the eggs, salt, pepper, and matzoh meal.
 * 3) Set aside moisten the sheets of matzoh with cold water, just enough to soften but not so much that they break up.
 * 4) Rub a heatproof glass or metal baking dish, about 9x6x2", with all but 1 teaspoon of the oil.
 * 5) Put 2-½ sheets of the moist matzoh -- big enough to turn up around the edges -- on the bottom of the dish.
 * 6) Add the spinach mixture and cover with remaining 1-½ sheets of the matzoh for the pie cover.
 * 7) Brush with the reserved 1 teaspoon of oil and sprinkle the walnuts over the top.
 * 8) Bake in a preheated 350 °f oven for 30 minutes.
 * 9) Serve warm, cut into generous squares or triangles.
