Open Spinach and Cheese Pie

Ingredients

• Crust

  • 2 cups (tea) wheat flour (220 g)
  • half cup (tea) unsalted butter, cold, cubed (100 g)
  • half teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons (soup) water

• Filling

  • leaves and stems of 1 small bunch of spinach, chopped
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 small apple, diced
  • 3 tablespoons (soup) dark raisins
  • half teaspoon salt
  • half teaspoon AJI-NO-MOTO®
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 100 g mozzarella, cut into large cubes

Modo de preparo

1. Make the dough: in a large bowl, place the flour, butter, salt, and water. Mix with your hands and knead until smooth and homogeneous. Cover and let rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, to firm up.
2. On a flat surface, place the dough between 2 sheets of plastic and roll it out with a rolling pin until 0.5 cm thick. Line the bottom and sides of a round springform pan (25 cm in diameter) and bake in a medium oven (180 degrees), preheated, for 10 minutes, without letting the dough brown.
3. Meanwhile, prepare the filling: in a large bowl, place the spinach, onion, apple, raisins, salt, AJI-NO-MOTO®, and eggs, and mix.
4. Spread over the crust, scatter the cheese cubes on top, and bake for 45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the cheese golden. Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
