It’s New Year’s Eve and I wanted to cook something early in the day to reduce the time I have to spend in the kitchen later to maximise family time. Happy with how this turned out!

Big thanks due to @mireya_gonzalez, I took huge inspiration from your quiche recipe. Also @Christophe_Duhamel for ongoing pastry inspiration.

Cooking Instructions

1hr
  1. 1

    Mix the flour, butter, water and salt to make the shortcrust pastry and leave to rest. Assemble all other ingredients for the filling.

  2. 2

    Wash and drain the spinach, before wilting in a large saucepan. Once cooked drain well.

  3. 3

    Cut the broccoli florets into bite size pieces. Rough chop the cooked spinach.

  4. 4

    In a bowl, crumble the feta and grate the cheddar. Add in the spinach.

  5. 5

    Add the broccoli, onion, garlic and mint and mix well.

  6. 6

    Roll out your pastry and shape into a greased flan dish. You can trim the excess later. Beat the eggs well and incorporate into the filling.

  7. 7

    Pour the filling in and distribute evenly using a spatula. Use a knife to trim the excess pastry from the edges. I made cheese straws with the excess pastry.

  8. 8

    Bake in a preheated 200°C oven for 30 mins. Once cooled, remove from the dish and enjoy!
