Recipe

1.

Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until it is translucent (about 5 minutes). Add the garlic and the sliced mushrooms and cook* until the mushrooms are soft and any liquid has evaporated (about 8-10 minutes). Season with salt and pepper.

2.

Leave the mushrooms in the pan, and add the spinach. Cook until the spinach wilts (2-3 minutes). Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

3.

Preheat your oven to 200°C. Roll out the first sheet of puff pastry and transfer it to 25cm pie dish, leaving a little pastry to hang over the edge of the dish.

4.

Evenly distribute the spinach and mushroom mixture over the pastry leaving a 5cm border around the edges. Sprinkle the grated cheddar and Parmesan cheese over the vegetable mixture.

5.

Roll out the second puff pastry sheet and use a pizza cutter to slice it into ten strips between 2 and 3 cm wide. Using the strips of dough to create a nice woven pie crust effect over the top of the mushroom and cheese mix. 5. Cut off any excess dough and pinch the edges to seal them or create a crimped edge. Brush the pastry top and visible sides with beaten egg to give it a golden finish when cooked.

6.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and crisp. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before cutting into slices. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves if desired. Serve warm.
