Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh spinach
- 200 grams feta cheese
- 3 large eggs
- 120 ml milk
- 50 grams all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 30 grams parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Lightly grease a baking dish with a bit of olive oil or cooking spray.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic, then sauté them in the pan until the onion is soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, stirring occasionally. If using pre-washed spinach, no need to chop it. Drain any excess liquid from the spinach mixture and set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and all-purpose flour until smooth. Stir in the dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Crumble the feta cheese into the egg mixture. Add the cooked spinach, onion, and garlic mixture, and stir until well combined.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bake is set. You can check by inserting a toothpick into the center—if it comes out clean, it’s done.
Allow the Spinach Feta Bake to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Slice into portions and enjoy warm.
