3.Layer 2 sheets of pastry, brushing each with some of the butter. Fold in half lengthways, place in prepared pan, edges overhanging. Repeat with 6 more sheets, overlapping strips clockwise around pan, until covered.
4.Spoon spinach mixture into the pan, fold edges back onto filling; brush with butter.
5.Layer remaining 4 pastry sheets, fold in half crossways; brush with butter. Place on pie. Trim pastry a little larger than pan. Tuck pastry edge inside pan.
