Instructions
  1. For the filling, in a skillet sauté the chopped scallions with some lukewarm water over medium heat for 3′-4′ until they are very soft.
  2. Place the spinach and stir quite frequently. Add the mint leaves, pour the olive oil and remove from heat.
  3. Preheat oven to 200°C.
  4. Prepare the batter by combing in a large bowl the cornmeal and salt. Stir in the olive oil and lukewarm water.
  5. In a small bowl place 3-4 tablespoons of batter and set aside. Scrape the rest of the batter out into a pan 20cm diameter.
  6. Carefully pour the filling over it.
  7. Add some lukewarm water to slightly dilute the batter left and pour it over the filling.
  8. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of olive oil on top of the cornbread and bake for 50′ until light golden-brown.
