Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Spinach

    Wash the fresh spinach thoroughly under cold water. Remove any tough stems and set aside.

    Chop the Onion

    Finely chop the medium onion and set aside.

  3. 3

    Mince the Garlic

    Peel and mince the garlic cloves.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Sauté the Onion and Garlic

    In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute.
