Spicy Spinach


Serves 4 as a side dish

Pack of young leaf spinach
Olive oil
Garlic
Pine nuts (about a tablespoon)
Raisins (about 2 tablespoons)

Warm some olive oil. Soften garlic in olive oil. Add pine nuts and raisins, stirring for about a minute over a low heat. Stir in spinach until wilted (3-4 minutes). Finished.

This just makes a vegetable a bit more exotic, and cuts through the bitterness of the spinach.


This can also be adapted to a Thai or Indian dish by the addition of spices. Chilli or paprika for Indian, ginger or Chinese Five Spice for thai.
