Steps
- 01Cook the spinach (microwave for 1 minute or wilt in a pan). Squeeze out as much water as possible using a clean kitchen towel. Then squeeze again. Then once more.
- 02Whisk eggs, cream, milk, salt, nutmeg, and pepper.
- 03Scatter spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, and half the cheese in the pan.
- 04Pour custard. Top with remaining cheese.
- 05Ready for the air fryer.
The three-squeeze instruction is not a joke. Spinach holds an absurd amount of water. One light squeeze leaves enough moisture to ruin the custard. Wring it out like a wet rag. You'll be shocked how much liquid comes out the second and third time.
