Guest guest Posted July 19, 2001 Report Share Posted July 19, 2001 This is my favorite way to cook spinach, and since it's my own recipe, measurements can vary to suit the number of people you are feeding........Once you have tried it , you will love it............... To serve 4 to 6 people: 2 bags of prewashed ready to cook spinach ( from the salad section of the produce Dept.) 1 Tblsp. minced garlic (you can by a jar of minced garlic or use fresh cloves, the minced garlic in the jar keeps forever in the fridge and is alway handy. More garlic can be used to suit your taste. 2 Tblsp. olive oil ( more can be used to suit your taste) salt and pepper wedges of fresh lemon In a large saute pan, heat the olive oil, add the garlic and stir for a few seconds over med. heat. Dont brown the garlic , as browned garlic is bitter. Add the spinach and saute til it is all wilted. Saute to desired softness. I like it better if I let it get very tender , but still bright green. You may cover and staem a few minutes if desired ; but water will accumulate. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Drain off any excessive water that may have accumulated from the spinach, leaving a small amount, and place spinach in a serving bowl. Squeeze some fresh lemon juice over spinach and garnish with a lemon slice if desired. Serve with fresh lemon wedges. May be served hot or warm.
