Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
2. Sauté the chopped onion in olive oil over medium heat for about 8 minutes until soft. Add the scallions and cook for 2 more minutes.
3. Add the spinach in batches, seasoning each batch with salt and pepper, and cook until wilted and most of the liquid has evaporated. A few tablespoons of liquid remaining is fine.
4. Take off the heat and stir in the crumbled feta and roasted red pepper if using. Taste, adjust the seasoning, and let cool.
5. Brush the inside of a tart or pie pan with melted butter, set it on a baking tray, and sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the base.
6. Layer the phyllo sheets in the pan quickly, drizzling butter between each layer and letting the excess hang over the sides.
7. In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the half and half, nutmeg, salt and pepper.
8. Spread the spinach filling in the pan, sprinkle with the shredded cheese, and pour the custard over the top.
9. Fold the phyllo edges over the filling to form a rustic crust, then brush with the remaining butter.
10. Bake on the centre rack for 45 minutes until golden and set. Cool for at least 20 minutes before removing from the tart pan.
