2. 2

   In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat, then sauté the chopped onion until soft and translucent.

3. 3

   Add the spinach and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, mixing well. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

4. 4

   In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed onion and spinach with crumbled feta, black pepper, and salt.

   Spoon a portion of the filling along one edge of the phyllo. Roll it up tightly to form a log. Bend into a spiral shape and place on a baking sheet.
