Photography by Steve Brown
Serves 4
Ingredients
1/4 cup (60ml) olive oil
2 garlic cloves, crushed
300g baby spinach
Grated rind and juice of 1 large lemon, plus lemon
wedges to serve
1 round Turkish bread or half a rectangle of Turkish
bread, halved sideways through the centre
1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
Method
Preheat the oven to 190°C.
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a frypan, then add the
garlic, spinach, lemon rind and half the juice. Toss over low heat
until the spinach is just wilted. Allow the spinach to cool, then
squeeze out excess liquid.
Arrange the spinach mixture over bread base, squeeze
over remaining lemon juice, then top with cheeses and season with
pepper. Top with the other bread half and drizzle with remaining oil.
Wrap completely in foil and place on a baking sheet. To flatten, place
a heavy baking tray on top and bake for 10 minutes. To serve, unwrap
and serve with lemon wedges.
