Ingredients

Serves: 4

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 small onion, finely diced

1 red pepper, diced

2-3 handfuls spinach, roughly chopped

1 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes, finely sliced (optional)

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C/140°C fan/gas mark 4.

  2. Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a frying pan, over medium heat.

  3. Fry the onion, pepper, and tomato for 8mins, or until soft.

  4. Add the spinach, mix well, and cook for 2mins. Remove from the heat and add the sun-dried tomatoes (if using).
