Lightly spray 1 filo sheet with oil, place into prepared dish to line base and sides, allowing pastry to overhang edge of dish. Repeat with 3 more filo sheets. Spread silverbeet mixture on top, then fold in overhanging pastry. Lightly spray remaining filo sheets with oil.

Fold in half and place on top of silverbeet mixture. Lightly spray with oil and tuck in edges. Sprinkle top with remaining oregano.
