Sunday lunch: spinach and sweetcorn lasagna
Continuing the anniversary theme, here is the main course I cooked for my first Valentine's dinner with Dr B. (twelve days after we met) four years ago.
At the time I served it with a side salad and I made a tiramisu for dessert (we were thin then).
This recipe serves four.
Ingredients
- 1 pack (1 kilo) frozen spinach, finely cut if possible
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 large tin sweetcorn
- butter
- salt and pepper
- 200g grated cheddar cheese
- 1 large pot creme fraiche or double cream
- 1 pack (500g) lasagna sheets, preferably with spinach (green) and pre-cooked (no need to boil first)
Preparation
- Press garlic and fry in a little butter
- Add frozen spinach, lower heat, cover and cook until defrosted and hot
- Add drained sweetcorn and cream
- Simmer to heat everything up
- Add half the grated cheese, salt and pepper, and mix through
- In a baking tin, alternate layers of spinach and pre-cooked lasagna, starting and ending with spinach
- Top with the rest of the grated cheese
- Bake until cheese on top is a nice golden colour
