Put the meat, the ginger powder, nutmeg, pepper and
salt to taste and beef stock in an oven dish. Bake 5 minutes at 250
degrees Celsius, put the temperature
down to 175 degrees and bake 45 minutes more. Boil 2 eggs for 10 minutes
and chop them. From the other 3 eggs, just use the yolks; mix those
with the cream. Add the spinach, sugar snaps and cabbage to the meat
and pour the cream on top, stir well. Bake half an hour At 175

There are many versions of this historic recipe,
which exists already for centuries. I n the 17th century, this dish
was already famous. It is based on a Spanish farmers' recipe for soup,
called "olla podrida". My recipe is an easy make-at-home version.
