Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF.
- Rub an 8" springform pan with butter and dust with about 1 Tbs of the Parmesan cheese.

- Cook the asparagus stems for 2 minutes in a saucepan of simmering water; then add the tips and cook for 1 minute.

- Then add the garlic and cook for more 1 minute.
- Finally, add the spinach, mix it in, and cook until it is just wilted.
- Take the frypan off the heat, add the asparagus and the basil, mix in, and season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Set aside to cool.
- Mix together the ricotta, mascarpone, eggs, and 1/2 cup Parmesan.
- Add the cheese and egg mixture to the cooled vegetables.
- Mix well and taste for seasoning.
- Grind some sea salt and black pepper to taste.
- Spoon the mixture into the springform pan and scatter with the remaining Parmesan over the top.
