This recipe is quick and easy to prepare - the length of cooking time once it's

in the pan depending on how large and/or tough your spinach happens to be.

 

Served with rice and other curries, it makes a nice addition to a meal - or it

can be served on its own with chapatis or other bread for a lighter meal. We

had it that way yesterday. The spiciness of course can be easily adjusted. Be

sure to use a large cooking pot.

 

500 g (1 lb spinach) - washed and with long stalks removed

2 Tbsp cooking oil

2 onions, sliced thinly

2 tsp fresh ginger, grated

3 cloves garlic, finely chopped

1 tsp cummin, ground

1 tsp coriander, ground

1/2 tsp ground turmeric

1/2 tsp cayenne (or to taste)

salt to taste

 

Fry onion over medium-high heat until it goes golden, add ginger and garlic

and stir for a couple of minutes, then add the spices and salt and stir. Put in

the spinach which is still wet from washing (this liquid may be all you need to

cook it), toss it around to get the spices on the leaves, then cook uncovered

on low heat - being sure to stir often and to add a little, very little, more

water if

needed just to prevent the spinach leaves from sticking to the pan. When the

spinach is cooked, remove from heat, taste for seasoning and serve. Simple

and delicious.

 

Best,

gf/pat
