It worked, but I'll make changes next time. I'll swap the walnuts for pistachios or maybe pine nuts and I think maybe I'll put some grated parmesan on the bottom for a bit of a crust when it is turned out.
What I used this time was: 3 large cabbage leaves to wrap the filling (blanched to soften). The filling was 3 eggs, about 150 g cottage cheese, about 50 g cheddar, grated, 300 g baby spinach wilted first, and a tablespoon of walnut pieces, toasted first. I buttered and lined a heavy iron pan with the cabbage leaves, filled it with all the fillings, covered with dampened greaseproof paper and baked at 180 C for something over half an hour - didn't check. Then I topped it with some cucumber and tomato. Had a quarter of it and was fairly full.
I've fixed my camera and worked out again how to work it, so here's a pic.
