Nutmeg

Salt

Feta cheese

Tomato

500gr fresh spinach
2 cloves garlic
Spices: pepper, nutmeg, salt
75gr feta cheese
optional: 3medium tomatoes

Method:

Wash the spinach leaves thoroughly and put them into a steamer put crushed garlic, pepper, nutmeg and salt in between layers. Then steam for about 10 minutes or
until the leaves are sunken together.

Cut the feta cheese into cubes.

Sauce:

3/4 cup cream
4 eggs
Spices: pepper, 1 teaspoon nutmeg, salt
3/4 cup of grated Edam cheese (Gruyere cheese, or another substitute)

Fill the cream in a separate bowl. Crack the eggs in, season and add the Gruyere cheese.

Bringing everything together:

Preheat the oven to 200C°.

Sprinkle the feta cheese onto the base. Then spread the steamed spinach on top.

Optionally top the spinach with tomato slices.

Tip:
Rip the spinach into pieces before layering it onto the top of the feta. The egg mixture has now chance to fill the gaps opposing to just having one
thick layer of spinach. As you can see in the photo it worked quite well.

The last step is pouring the cream, egg, cheese mix as evenly as possible.

Place the quiche into the to 200C° preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes. Convert!

Serve as a snack, starter or accompanied with a soup and/or salad as a main.
