2. Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease a 20 cm tart case or shallow ovenproof dish. Squeeze any excess water from the chard.
3. Fry the spring onions and garlic in the olive oil for 1 minute, then add the broccoli and cook for 2 minutes. Stir through the chard and peas to heat through.
4. Remove from the heat and spoon into the dish. Spread out evenly and pour over the ricotta custard.
