The anchovy and spinach tart is a delicious appetizer of Italian origin. The crispy shortcrust pastry base perfectly complements the soft and flavorful filling of fresh spinach, processed cheese, and anchovy fillets. A combination of flavors that wins over every palate.
Butter a 20 cm diameter tart pan with 15 g of butter
Roll out the pastry with a rolling pin and line the pan
Remove the stems from the spinach, clean and wash them
Melt the remaining butter over low heat in a saucepan; add the spinach and let them cook for five to ten minutes, stirring occasionally until tender
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees (thermostat 6)
Drain the spinach, pressing them to extract the liquid
Chop them and place them in the pan
Beat the eggs with the cream in a bowl, add a pinch of nutmeg, lightly salt and pepper
Cut the portions of processed cheese in half and arrange them on the tart, alternating with the anchovy fillets
Bake in the middle of the oven and cook for thirty minutes
Lower the temperature to 140 degrees (thermostat 4)
Cook for another ten to fifteen minutes until the inside of the tart is set and the pastry is golden
Serve this tart hot or cold accompanied by green salad and dry white wine; the processed cheese and anchovies give this spinach tart an original flavor
