Spinach Gratin image

I think this is the perfect side dish to something like my Pork Chop Melts (#70596). It is very impressive when you bring it bubbling to the table.

Time 35m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 medium onions, finely chopped
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup hot chicken stock
3 tablespoons flour
1 1/4 cups whole milk
salt and black pepper
6 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese
20 ounces fresh spinach, washed
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

  • Add the hot chicken stock and let simmer 10 minutes more, covered.
  • Stir in the flour and when it is completely mixed in, add the milk.
  • Stir while bringing to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 3-4 minutes or until thick.
  • Stir in two tablespoons of the parmesan, season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, lightly sauté the spinach in a separate pan.
  • When it is wilted, rinse in cold water until it is cool enough to handle.
