Serving

410 g cannellini beans
40 g finely grated parmesan cheese
2 tbsp chopped fresh flat leaf parsley
1 pinch of grated nutmeg
40 g sliced italian salami , rind discarded, diced
1 medium egg, beaten
2 -3 tbsp dried breadcrumbs, plus extra
dried breadcrumbs , to coat
2 tbsp light olive oil
500 g spinach, washed, stalks removed
1 lemon, quartered

Directions:

Drain beans, place in a bowl with parmesan, parsley, nutmeg and seasoning. Rougly mash with fork, keeping mixture slightly course.
Beat in salami and egg with wooden spoon. Add breadcrumbs one Tbsp at a time until firm enough to shape into 8 balls. Gently flatten each ball into a patty and lightly coat in breadcrumbs.
Heat oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and fry patties 2-3 minutes each side until golden brown. Reserve and keep warm.
Pack spinach into a large saucepan, adding just enough water to cling to the leaves. Cover and steam over a medium high heat 3 minutes until wilted, stiring occasionally. Drain and season.
