This dish is made with a light and flaky dough that is filled with a savory mixture of spinach and feta cheese.

To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:

For the dough:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil


For the filling:

- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
To make the dough, combine the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the warm water and vegetable oil and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
To make the filling, combine the chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, chopped onion, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
To assemble the khinkali, roll out the dough into a thin sheet and cut out circles using a cookie cutter or a glass. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each circle and fold the edges of the dough up to create a pouch. Pinch the edges together to seal the filling inside.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the khinkali to the pot and cook for 10-12 minutes or until they float to the surface. Remove the khinkali from the pot using a slotted spoon and serve hot.
The Spinach and Feta Khinkali with Light and Flaky Dough is a perfect appetizer or main dish for any occasion. The light and flaky dough pairs perfectly with the savory filling of spinach and feta cheese. The appearance of the dish is beautiful, with the pouch-like shape of the khinkali and the vibrant green color of the spinach filling.
