Place raw spinach leaves and leeks (which should be rather small) into a bowl. Mix the cottage cheese with two eggs, season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, and mix with the spinach. Crumble the blue cheese and add it to the bowl. Finely chop the garlic and fry it in olive oil until crispy. Briefly fry the walnuts, then add the garlic, oil, and nuts to the spinach mixture, mixing everything well. Grease a square baking dish well with olive oil and then line it with the filo pastry, leaving a little extra for a lid, and don’t forget the edges! Pour the spinach mixture on top and place the filo pastry lid on top. Whisk the remaining egg in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Spread the mixture over the lid and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Place in a cold oven and bake at 200°C for 40 minutes. The surface should be nice and crispy, but be careful not to burn it. You can place a piece of aluminum foil on the dish at the end.
