Best Oil Free Spinach With Ginger And Garlic Recipes

OIL-FREE SPINACH WITH GINGER AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Put 1/2 inch water in a large, wide soup pot over high heat. When water boils, add garlic and ginger.
• Add large handful spinach to the pot. Season lightly with salt and pepper, then twirl with tongs to barely wilt the spinach, about a minute or less. Using tongs, transfer to a serving bowl. Repeat until all the spinach is cooked.

GARLIC SAUTEED SPINACH

Steps:

• Rinse the spinach well in cold water to make sure it's very clean. Spin it dry in a salad spinner, leaving just a little water clinging to the leaves.
• In a very large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and saute the garlic over medium heat for about 1 minute, but not until it's browned. Add all the spinach, the salt, and pepper to the pot, toss it with the garlic and oil, cover the pot, and cook it for 2 minutes. Uncover the pot, turn the heat on high, and cook the spinach for another minute, stirring with a wooden spoon, until all the spinach is wilted. Using a slotted spoon, lift the spinach to a serving bowl and top with the butter, a squeeze of lemon, and a sprinkling of sea or kosher salt. Serve hot.

WILTED SPINACH WITH GARLIC AND OIL

Steps:

• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add oil and garlic. Saute garlic in oil 2 or 3 minutes. Add spinach to the pan in stages. Fill the pan with leaves and turn leaves in warm oil until they wilt. Add more spinach to the skillet and repeat the process until all of the spinach is incorporated. Season the wilted spinach with salt and pepper and nutmeg, then serve.
