Method 3 Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 180°C. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan and sauté the onion, leek, and garlic until tender. Add the wilted and well-squeezed spinach, sauté gently for 1 minute, then remove from the heat.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, beat the 2 eggs, then mix with the cream, spices, white cheese, and lemon zest. Add to the spinach mixture and combine well. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Roll out the puff pastry into an oiled or parchment-lined tart tin. Score a 1 cm border around the edge with a sharp knife to help it puff up. Spread the filling over the pastry, sprinkle with grated Gruyère or Cheddar, and bake for about 30 minutes, or until golden.
