Directions

  1. Combine the eggs, 100g of spinach, and the Parmesan cheese until you have a smooth but not completely smooth mixture. Season with salt and pepper. ≈ 4 min
  2. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Pour in the egg mixture and cook for 1 minute 30, until it begins to thicken. Use a spoon to push the edges towards the center and tilt the pan so that the remaining liquid runs to the bottom. Cook for another 2 minutes, until the eggs are set like a custard.
  3. Fill the center of each bread half with the remaining spinach, ham, and eggs. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve. ≈ 10 min
