Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Wash Spinach

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

  2. 2

    Mince Garlic

    Peel the garlic cloves and finely mince them using a knife or a garlic press.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat Olive Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering, about 1-2 minutes.

  2. 4

    Sauté Garlic

    Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant but not browned.

  3. 5

    Add Spinach

    Gradually add the washed spinach to the skillet, stirring continuously until the spinach wilts down, approximately 3-4 minutes.

  4. 6

    Season and Serve

    Once the spinach is wilted, season with salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional minute. Remove from heat and serve hot.
