Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Wash the Spinach

    Thoroughly rinse the fresh spinach leaves under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Mince the Garlic

    Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Chop the Onion

    Peel and finely chop the onion. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Heat Olive Oil

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.

  2. 5

    Sauté Onion and Garlic

    Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until translucent. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

  3. 6

    Add Spinach

    Gradually add the washed spinach to the skillet, stirring continuously. It may seem like too much at first, but it will wilt down significantly.

  4. 7

    Season and Cook

    Once all the spinach is added, sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted and tender, about 3-5 minutes.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    Remove the sautéed spinach from the skillet and transfer it to a serving bowl or plate. Serve warm as a side dish.
