Peel and finely chop the onion. Wash, drain, and chop the spinach.
Heat a large pot with the olive oil, sauté the onion, and then add the spinach. Stir-fry for a few minutes and season with salt and pepper.
Add the flour, lightly toast it, and then pour in the hot milk. Cook for a few minutes over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then gently fold in the yolks.
Carefully mix the spinach cream with the beaten egg whites. Grease your chosen molds with oil and pour in the mixture.
Bake for 30 minutes at 200°C (400°F). Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
Ensure the egg whites are beaten to stiff peaks for a light and airy soufflé.
Use fresh spinach for the best flavor and texture.
Serve the soufflé immediately after baking to maintain its fluffiness.
Can I use frozen spinach instead of fresh?
Yes, you can use frozen spinach, but make sure to thaw and drain it thoroughly before using.
What type of mold should I use for the soufflé?
You can use individual ramekins or a larger soufflé dish, depending on your preference.
Can I make this soufflé ahead of time?
Soufflés are best served immediately after baking, as they may deflate if left for too long.
How do I prevent the soufflé from sticking to the mold?
Grease the mold thoroughly with oil to ensure easy removal of the soufflé.
Can I add cheese to the soufflé?
Yes, you can add grated cheese to the spinach mixture for extra flavor before folding in the egg whites.
