Spanish recipes

Basic ingredients

  • 1 1/2 kg fresh spinach
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 cloves of garlic finely chopped
  • 50g pine nuts
  • salt and pepper

Steps:

1. Wash the spinach thoroughly and cut the rough stems off

2. Cook the spinach in very little water in a covered pan for 5 mins then drain and chop

3. Heat the olive oil over a medium to low heat and add the finely sliced garlic, sultanas and pine nuts. Fry gently for 2 - 3 mins, stirring all the time so that the pine nuts brown but do not burn. Add the spinach.

4. Mix all ingredients together and season with salt and pepper

 


Tips and ideas:

  • Prepared this spinach dish just before the meal to ensure that it´s served hot
  • Serve as a side dish with this seabass recipe.
  • Add a pinch of nutmeg when adding the salt and pepper gives the spinach an aromatic flavour.
