Well done to Y10 Food and Nutrition GCSE class on making some tasty

Spinach & cheese soufflés in red peppers

recipe on next slide

Spinach & cheese soufflés in red peppers recipe

• Ingredients

4-6 red peppers

Olive oil

30g butter

30g plain flour

250 ml milk or fat-reduced cream

1 clove garlic

Salt and freshly ground pepper

3 large eggs

200g spinach

125 g grated mozzarella cheese (or crumbled feta)

Method

Preheat the oven to gas mark 5 – 190 degrees.

Halve the peppers and scoop out the ribs and seeds. Rub each

half with a little olive oil and arrange on a baking sheet, the

cavities facing up. Bake the peppers in the oven, preheated to

190ºC, for 10 minutes or until they feel slightly soft to the touch.

Mince the garlic using a garlic press. Finely shop the spinach.

Separate the egg white from the yolks in two separate bowls.

Heat the butter in a small saucepan and add the flour. Stir well to

combine and cook for 30 seconds before adding the milk or

cream. Whisk over medium heat until thickened.

Remove from heat, stir in the garlic, season and allow to cool a

little then whisk the egg yolks into the sauce, one at a time.

Add the spinach and cheese to the sauce and mix well. Taste

and adjust seasoning.

Divide the mixture between the pre-baked peppers. Bake in the

oven for 15 – 20 minutes or until the soufflés are no longer

wobbly, but puffed and golden.
