Wash and clean the spinach, boil in very little salted water for a short time, strain and eliminate as much water as possible, chop and place in the bowl of the mixer. Add all the other ingredients: whole eggs, Parmesan, nutmeg, olive oil and salt to taste. Blend until smooth.
Butter an oven dish and place the mixture inside levelling the surface well. Bake at 300°F/150°C/G2 for the time it takes to form a thin film on the surface.
