Indulge in a delightful and nutritious dish with our Spinach Parmesan Custard with Frico, a gluten-free culinary creation that's perfect for any occasion. Packed with the goodness of fresh baby spinach, this custard not only highlights the vibrant green of the spinach but also offers a luxurious creamy texture enriched with nutty flavors from Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
This dish is an excellent source of protein thanks to the eggs and milk, making it a satisfying option for a light lunch or as a side dish for dinner. The addition of freshly grated nutmeg and black pepper enhances the flavor profile, elevating the simple ingredients to something truly special. The subtle sweetness of sautéed onions perfectly complements the spinach, creating a harmonious taste that will leave your guests asking for seconds.
The appealing golden top, achieved through baking, contrasts wonderfully with the soft and wobbly custard underneath. To add a touch of crunch, serve it alongside frico—crispy cheese wafers that provide the perfect textural balance and an extra burst of cheesy goodness. With a preparation time of just 45 minutes, this recipe is not only quick to make but also a feast for the senses. Gather your loved ones and enjoy this hearty dish that celebrates the simplicity of wholesome ingredients!
