Step 1
Preheat oven to 200°C. Grease an 8-cup (2L) baking dish and line with baking paper. Heat half the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the leek.

Transfer to the bowl with the leek. Set aside to cool slightly.

Add the fetta and parmesan to the silverbeet mixture in the bowl. Sift in flour and stir until well combined. Whisk eggs and milk in a medium bowl. Add the egg mixture to the silverbeet mixture. Stir to combine. Stir in chopped parsley and mint. Season.
