Tonight we are drawing on Italian Jewish cooking traditions, although the basic idea is common across middle-eastern and North African traditions, and – with different flavourings – this is also a type of egg dish found in Iran.
Finely dice two shallots and fry until soft. Chop a couple of tablespoons of drained capers with 5 anchovies and a garlic clove. Add to the pan, stir and cook for a couple of minutes. Then tip in some chopped pistachio and some sultanas and cook for another minute or so. Tip it into a bowl and add chopped cooked spinach (I used frozen). Lightly beat 3 eggs, whisk in a tablespoon of flour and. ½ teaspoon of baking powder.
Grease a baking dish with butter and dust with breadcrumbs. Tip in the egg-spinach mixture, and cook for 30-40 mins at 160C.
