Step-by-Step Preparation
1. Prepare the Potatoes
Boil the sliced or cubed potatoes in salted water until just tender (not mushy). Drain well and set aside.
2. Cook the Onion and Spinach
Heat a little vegetable oil in a pan.
Sauté the chopped onion until soft and translucent.
Add the spinach and cook for 2–3 minutes, just until wilted. Season with salt, pepper, and dried garlic.
3. Prepare the Egg Mixture
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
4. Assemble the Dish
Lightly oil a baking dish.
- First layer: potatoes
- Second layer: spinach and onion mixture
- Sprinkle with mozzarella
- Pour the egg and cream cheese mixture evenly over the top
Repeat layers if needed, finishing with mozzarella.
5. Bake
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set.
6. Rest and Serve
Let the dish rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This helps it hold its shape and enhances the flavors.
Serving Suggestions
- Serve warm with a fresh green salad
- Pair with tomato sauce or yogurt dip
- Enjoy it for dinner, brunch, or even lunch the next day
This dish tastes even better once the flavors have had time to settle.
Tips for Extra Flavor
- Add a pinch of nutmeg for depth
- Mix in feta or parmesan for a stronger cheese note
- Include mushrooms or bell peppers for variation
- Use sweet potatoes for a slightly sweeter twist
