You Will Need
-
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 160°C/325°F/Gas Mark 3. Generously butter a 20 cm/8 inch cake tin with a loose base. Grind the walnut pieces to a powder in a food processor, then press them into the base and sides of the tin.
-
Step 2
Heat a frying pan over a low heat and add the olive oil. Cook the garlic and spring onions for 1 minute, until fragrant. Add the rocket and herbs and stir for 1–2 minutes, until the rocket is just wilted. Remove the pan from the heat.
-
Step 3
Put the eggs, ricotta, Parmesan and the rocket mixture in a clean food processor, and season with salt and pepper. Process until evenly mixed. Pour into the prepared tin. Bake for about 45 minutes, until golden and firm. Turn out, cut into wedges and serve warm.
