hearty and delicious with a spicy twist

Thaw the frozen spinach with a cup of water in a large pot and heat over high to medium heat, stirring constantly. Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic. Heat the oil in a heated pan and cook the diced onion and garlic over low heat until translucent. Now add the diced ham and continue frying. After a few minutes, add the Buko cheese to the pan and let it melt. Add a splash of whole milk. Now mix the entire contents of the pan with the spinach. Thinly slice the potatoes in a casserole dish and line the bottom with them. Pour the savory spinach and cheese mixture over the potatoes and sprinkle with the grated cheese. Heat in the microwave for 5 minutes, then broil for another 5 minutes to crisp the cheese slightly. We’ll skip the extra seasoning with pepper and salt, as the Hellas cheese is already very savory.
