1. Season the turkey escalopes. Wash all the spinach thoroughly and remove the stalks. Cook in a small amount of salted boiling water for 3 minutes, until just tender.
2. Turn into a sieve and drain well, pressing to remove all liquid. Chop finely and place in a bowl.
3. De-seed the pepper, blanch in boiling salted water for 1 minute, then drain and finely dice. Add to the spinach, together with the crushed garlic and pine nuts. Season to taste.
4. Divide the spinach mixture into 4 servings and spread over the turkey escalopes, to within 1/4 inch (5mm) of their edges. Roll each piece up and place in an ovenproof dish.
5. Dot each one with a little butter and bake in the oven, basting two or three times, for 30 minutes. Remove and serve immediately.
