Easy Chopped Spinach

This is an easy side-dish, which can be made in the last minute. I use frozen chopped spinach for this dish, which shortens the preparation time and effort considerably!

Ingredients:

• frozen chopped spinach
• crushed garlic + sliced garlic 
• salt
• black pepper
• butter
• olive oil

Preparation:

1. Place chopped frozen spinach in strainer. Leave until defrosted.
2. In heavy non-stick frying pan or pot, melt 1-2 Tablespoons butter.
3. Add some crushed garlic. Can also add some sliced garlic.
4. Lightly heat up, and then add the drained frozen chopped spinach, salt and pepper to taste.
5. Add a bit of hot water, mix, and cook carefully so that it doesn’t dry out or burn on the bottom.
6. Add a bit of olive oil for flavor. Taste and adjust seasoning.
7. This does not require a long cooking time – only about 10-12 minutes on low flame.
