Ingredients

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Wilt the spinach with the garlic in most of the oil, then squeeze it dry hard.
  2. Beat the eggs with the ricotta, yogurt, flour, nutmeg and salt until smooth, then fold in the spinach.
  3. Pour into a 6-inch (15 cm) dish brushed with the last of the oil, scatter the Parmesan and pine nuts, and bake 25–28 minutes until set with a faint wobble at the center. Rest ten minutes before cutting.
Chef’s tipRest before cutting. Cut hot, it weeps. Ten minutes and the custard firms enough to hold a clean edge.
Make it twoDouble into an 8-inch (20 cm) dish and add five minutes; it is as good cold as hot.
