'Slices Of Heaven' 2007
(Spinach and APETINA Quiche)

Recipe 8 of 9

Created by X. Marchmont, London

“I promise you won't go near a rubbery shop-bought quiche again after you've tried this moist, tangy masterpiece. I made it the night before friends came round for lunch in the garden, so all I had to worry about was getting the old vino nice and chilled!”
Xavier Marchmont

Serves 4

Materials

  • 1x ready-rolled shortcrust pastry sheet OR 1x500g pack ready-made shortcrust pastry - thawed if frozen
  • 3 large eggs
  • 100ml/4fl oz each of single cream and milk
  • Black pepper and grated nutmeg to season
  • 250g/9oz fresh spinach (It's possible to buy ready-washed spinach in this pack size - read on for the 'cook in the cellophane pack' method.) Or wash and drain the spinach well.
  • 1x pack APETINA cheese

Method

Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C for fan assisted ovens) 400°F/Gas Mark 6.

Use the pastry to line a 20cm/8” flan tin, ring or dish. Chill in the fridge whilst you prepare the filling. Then just 'wilt' the spinach. If it's pre-packed in cellophane, simply 'snip' the bag 3-4 times with scissors and microwave on full power for 1 minute. Remove from bag and drain. If you've purchased loose spinach, pop it in a suitable bag and proceed as above.

Beat the eggs with the cream and milk, season well with the pepper and grated nutmeg. Scatter the cooled spinach over the base of the flan case, then top with ¾ of the pack of APETINA - crumbled. Gently pour the egg mixture over the filling and finally crumble over the remaining cheese.

Bake for 25 minutes until the filling is set and is beginning to go golden brown. Serve hot or cold with a salad or seasonal vegetables of your choice.
