Method

Step 1 of 4

Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook onion, stirring, for 2 minutes or until softened. Add silverbeet, zucchini and leftover greens, then cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until softened.

Step 2 of 4

Remove pan from heat and allow to cool slightly. When cool enough to handle, squeeze excess liquid from silverbeet mixture, then combine with ricotta, eggs, herbs and parmesan in a large bowl. Season.

Step 3 of 4

Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Place pastry on a work surface. Cover with a damp tea towel to prevent pastry drying out. Brush 1 pastry sheet with a little butter. Top with another pastry sheet and brush with a little butter. Continue layering until you have used half each of the pastry and butter. Grease and line a 28cm round pie dish with pastry stack, allowing excess to overhang edge. Place silverbeet mixture in pastry case, then fold over overhanging pastry.

Step 4 of 4

Create second pastry stack (as per Step 3) with remaining pastry sheets and a little of the remaining butter. Place pastry stack over filling and tuck in sides to seal. Brush pastry top with remaining butter. Bake for 45 minutes or until pastry is golden and pie is cooked through. Stand pie for 30 minutes to cool. Top with extra herbs. Serve.
