Steps to make Feta & Spinach Quiche:
- Cook the spinach in a saucepan until it's soft and still bright green, you will know it's ready when it reduces its size and you can see the liquid at the bottom. Set aside with the lid on.
- In a bowl, mix the flour, salt, baking powder. Add the butter and mix it well with your fingers until it looks like breadcrumbs. Add the egg yolk and the water. Knead the dough until the ingredients are integrated. Leave it to rest for 10 minutes, wrapped in cling film in the fridge.
- In another bowl, break the feta into small pieces, I like to crumble it with my hands if the feta is not too soft. Add the spinach, drained and slightly cut into smaller bits. Season with salt and pepper, add the onions, the garlic, the mint, and the nutmeg, or mixed spices if you like more seasoning. Set aside.
- Stretch the dough on a sheet of baking paper, approximately 5 mm thin and enough to cover the edges of the tin.
- Put the tin (25 cm round tin) upside down in the middle of the dough, place one hand under the paper (between the surface and the dough), the other hand on the tin, lift altogether and flip. With the dough facing up, shape it inside the tin and make sure the baking paper is not trapped in a fold. Remove the paper carefully.
- Once all the edges are done, add the eggs, the egg white and, mix the filling once more, to bring all the ingredients together again, then pour it in.
- Place it in the oven at 200 degrees (fan) for 30 minutes or until you see the edges golden and the also the top. Enjoy!
