Preparation 1. Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4. 2. Steam the spinach, drain well and roughly chop. In a large bowl, mix the cooked spinach with the onion, beaten eggs and both types of cheese. Beat well and season with pepper and nutmeg. 3. Transfer mixture to one large pie dish, or individual dishes if using. Bake in preheated oven for 25–30 minutes. ICA TipYou could cheat with a large packet of frozen spinach if you don't have any fresh spinach to hand. Simply chop and mix with the rest of the ingredients.
