Ingredients

Torta

  • 300 g Grimm’s Mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced
  • 400 g Grimm’s Old Fashioned ham, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 jar roasted red peppers (350ml), drained
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 4 packets chopped spinach (300 g each), defrosted and squeezed dry
  • 1/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 2 tbsp fresh breadcrumbs
  • 30 g freshly grated parmesan
  • 675 g frozen, rolled puff pastry, defrosted
  • egg wash, made from egg yolk beaten with 2 tsp with water

Egg Mixture

  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 tbsp unsalted butter

Preparation

Omelettes

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.  Heat oil and butter in large sauté pan and add onion and garlic to pan, cook two to three minutes. Squeeze excess moisture from spinach, add to pan, cook for approximately five minutes, add nutmeg, salt, pepper to taste. Remove to bowl, stir in egg, breadcrumbs and 30 g parmesan, set aside to cool.
  2. Beat the eggs. Heat half of the butter in 9 inch sauté pan and make flat omelette with half mixture, carefully place on a plate. Make sure the eggs are still loose and not too cooked, as you will be baking them a second time.  Make another omelette with remaining butter and eggs, place on plate, set aside to cool.

Torta Pastry

  1. Unroll the pastry and cut out 2 circles by tracing the bottom of the springform pan. Make sure the circle is about 1/2 an inch wider than the bottom of the pan.  Spray the entire inside surface of the springform pan with cooking spray.  Place one of the circles on the bottom of the pan and brush with the egg wash. 
  2. Cut out strips of the pastry, about 1/2 inch deeper than the sides of the pan, to line the sides of the torta.  Create the sides of the torta, pressing together the pastry and sealing the edges together with the egg wash.
  3. When all ingredients have cooled, begin to layer the torta.
  4. Place one omelette in base on top of the pastry. Spread with all of the spinach, then half cheese, then half ham and all the red peppers. Repeat layering in reverse, using remaining ham and cheese; finish with the other omelette.
  5. Place the remaining pastry circle on top of the filling, brush with egg wash around edges. Fold over extra dough from the sides and make sure edges are tightly sealed.  Pinch the pastry between thumb and forefinger. Glaze with egg wash and with the point of knife mark decorative pattern on top, try to avoid cutting through the pastry. Decorate with pastry offcuts if you like. 
  6. Bake for approximately one hour or until the crust is deep golden. Remove and let settle at least 20 minutes. Serve either warm or at room temperature. Cut into wedges.

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Start by making the pesto. To a blender, add 3/4 cups each mint and basil leaves, 1/2 clove garlic, and most of a 1/2 cup of shelled pistachios. Slowly add the olive oil while blending on high speed and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  2. Cut the cauliflowers into florets, drizzle with olive oil and a pinch of salt, place into a preheated oven at 475°F for 10-12 minutes, until browned and cooked through.
  3. To make the polenta, start by thinly dicing the Capicolli. Add a splash of olive oil to a pot over medium high heat and cook the Capicolli until crispy, reserve. Bring 1 cup of water to a boil, slowly whisk in 1/4 cup of cornmeal and the oil from the Capicolli, cook for 10 minutes at a simmer until tender, season with salt and pepper.
  4. To finish, spoon the polenta onto the plate. Toss the cauliflower with the crispy Capicolli, a splash of lemon juice and olive oil, and spoon over the polenta. Add a few dollops of the pesto, some crushed pistachios, and cover the dish in fresh mint and basil leaves.

Ingredients

  • 6 slices Grimm’s Honey & Maple Flavour Ham  
  • 1.5 pkg shredded Grimm’s Old Cheddar
  • 6 slices of bread 
  • 1 tbsp soft butter or mayo

Cheese Sauce

  • 300 g shredded Gruyère, Emmenthal, aged Gouda or Grimm’s Fine Foods Old Cheddar, grated
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Assemble as many sandwiches as you’d like to make, using thinly sliced ham and cheese, and spread the outside of the sandwiches with soft butter or mayo. Arrange them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, flipping about halfway through, until golden.
  2. Meanwhile, set aside a small amount of the cheese (enough to sprinkle a bit on each sandwich) and put the rest into a medium bowl. Add the flour and toss to coat. Heat the milk in a medium saucepan and when it’s steaming, add the cheese in handfuls, stirring until each addition melts before adding the next. Stir until smooth.
  3. ​Pour some of the cheese sauce over each sandwich and top with a bit more shredded cheese. Return to the oven for 5 minutes, until the top is bubbly and golden. If you like, switch the oven to broil, but watch it carefully – it should brown in just 1-2 minutes. Serve warm.
