- 1 tablespoon yeast
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups warm water, or as needed
- Mixing

- Vegetable oil
- A pinch of fine hot pepper
Method
Follow the cooking sequence without leaving the page.
- Mix all the ingredients well, then add the water gradually until a soft dough forms.
- Let the dough rest for half an hour, then start working with it. It will rise as you shape the pies.
- Wash the spinach well, then drain it and chop it coarsely.
- Sprinkle the spinach with a little salt and rub it with your hands until all the moisture comes out.
- Place the spinach in a bowl with the onion, then add the sumac, lemon salt, oil, salt to taste, and hot pepper.
- Mix well and strain the filling in a sieve before stuffing the pies.
- There is no need to brush the pies with anything, not even oil. Place the spinach pies in a preheated oven at 200 degrees.
- Bake the pies from the bottom first, then from the top until browned.
