Method

Baked spinach and fetta rolls

1.Heat oil in a large frying pan over moderate heat. Add leek; cook and stir for 3 minutes or until soft. Add spinach and dill. Season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until spinach wilts. Transfer to a large heatproof bowl. Cool.

2.Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Cut a third from the top of each bread roll; discard tops. Scoop soft bread from inside, leaving a 5mm-thick shell. Place rolls on a baking tray. Brush with extra oil.

3.Whisk eggs, cream, nutmeg, ricotta and feta in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add cooled spinach mixture; stir to combine. Carefully pour egg mixture into bread shells.

4.Bake 30 minutes, or until egg is just set. Serve with salad.

Use low-fat cream, ricotta and feta. Recipe is best mode just before serving. Process soft bread removed from rolls to make crumbs; freeze for another use.
