Ingredients

  • 2 cups corn flour (250g)
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 3 cups cottage cheese (150g)
  • 3 eggs
  • 5 cups spinach (150g)
  • 1/2 cup milk (100ml)
  • 1/2 cup water (100ml)
  • 4 tbsp sunflower oil (50ml)
  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs.
  • Add the cottage cheese and mix it well until it combines with the eggs.
  • Stir in the finely chopped spinach.
  • Add milk, water, and oil to the mixture and mix it well.
  • Gradually add the cornmeal and baking powder to the mixture, stirring continuously until you get a smooth batter.
  • Season it with salt according to your taste and give it one more good stir.
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Grease your baking tray with oil and make sure to heat it well in the oven to prevent the cornbread from sticking.
  • Carefully pour your batter into the preheated baking tray and smooth out the surface.
  • Place the tray in the oven and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the cornbread obtains a golden-brown color and is cooked through.
  • In the meantime, prepare your topping by beating one egg with 3.5 ounces of cottage cheese.
  • Remove the baking tray from the oven and pour your prepared topping over the batter in the tray.
  • Let the cornbread cool for a bit before cutting and serving it.
