Ingredients

4 servings

1 round or oval bread loaf ((Note 1))
300 g / 10 oz ham, turkey and other cooked meat slices
1 cup roughly chopped antipasto things ((olives, sun dried tomato, chargrilled peppers, artichokes, feta etc))

50 g / 3 tbsp salted butter (, melted)

Steps

Preheat oven to 180C/350F.
Mix butter and garlic.
Cut the top off the bread loaf. Pick out bread from the loaf and the lid, leaving a wall and floor about 1.5cm / 3/5" thick.
Place bread on a large sheet of foil on a baking tray.
Dab / brush inside with butter. Layer with: half spinach, turkey, antipasto things, remaining spinach, ham, cheese.
Tuck flappy bits inside the loaf, top with lid.
Brush with butter all over. Wrap with foil.
Weigh down with something flat and heavy - cast iron skillet is ideal.
Bake for 20 minutes. Remove skillet and foil.
Bake for a further 10 minutes until golden.
Cut into thick slices and serve immediately!
