1. Prep the Filling

If using fresh spinach:
Sauté in olive oil with garlic for 2–3 minutes until wilted. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Let cool and chop finely.

If using frozen spinach:
Thaw, squeeze out excess water, and mix with garlic, salt, and pepper if desired.

In a bowl, mix the spinach with feta cheese and optional Parmesan. Set aside.

2. Prepare the Puff Pastry

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle (roughly 10×12 inches).

Cut the rectangle in half horizontally to make two equal sheets.

3. Assemble the Twists

Spread the spinach and feta mixture evenly over one half of the pastry.

Place the other pastry sheet on top like a sandwich and press gently.

Cut into strips about 1 inch wide (use a sharp knife or pizza cutter).

Take each strip, twist it a few times, and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

4. Bake

Beat the egg and brush it lightly over each twist.

Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.

Optional Add-ons:

Sprinkle with sesame seeds or everything bagel seasoning before baking.

Add a pinch of chili flakes or dill to the filling for extra flavor.

 Storage Tips:

Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

Reheat in oven or air fryer to crisp up before serving
