Step 1

Prepare your spinach. First, defrost it. Either leave it out to thaw for a few hours at room temperature, or use your microwave's defrost setting for a few minutes. It doesn't need to be warm or completely thawed, you just want to loosen up the blocks of spinach enough to be able to squeeze out moisture. To do this, I like to put all the spinach into a sieve or colander and use a heavy bowl to press down and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.

Step 2

Place the spinach into a large bowl and set aside.

Step 3

Heat a little oil in a frying pan and saute the onion until soft. (alternatively you could air fry the onion for a few minutes if you have a small pan to insert into the frying basket)

Step 4

Add the onion into the bowl with the spinach and mix in the feta, cream cheese, lemon juice and mint. Add a little extra cream cheese if needed to bind everything together into a nice creamy filling.

Step 5

Preheat your air fryer to 180C / 360F.

Step 6

Whisk together an egg in a small bowl to use as an egg wash.

Step 7

Time to make the rolls. Lay out 1-2 sheets of filo (see notes) and scoop the filling along one side. Brush the pastry with a thin layer of egg along the edges. Fold the sides in and roll it up, burrito style.

Step 8

Brush the outside of the roll with a light coat of egg wash.

Step 9

Place two rolls in the air fryer basket and cook for 15 minutes. The pastry should be very golden and crispy with the filling inside warmed through.
