Recipe
By: Tangy
10
ounces frozen spinach
1 clove garlic -- chopped, large clove
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup heavy cream -- approximately
1 pinch thyme
freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup parmesan cheese -- freshly grated, approximate
1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar -- (1/2 to 1), or another kind
1 pinch ground nutmeg
Cook spinach as directed and drain for as long as your patience
permits (squeezing it with towels to speed drying up) and set
aside. Using a skillet recently used for frying bacon but with
the grease poured out, melt butter over moderate heat. Brown garlic
in butter, throwing in thyme and pepper (to taste) just before
garlic is lightly browned. Immediately throw in spinach and warm
it up before adding cream and vinegar. Stir, being sure to get
every bit of bacon stuck in pan. When mixture starts to thicken
up, add cheese and take off burner. The cheese will continue melting.
Sprinkle a bit of nutmeg and give it a final stir or two.
This
dish converted my spinach-disliking mum! I would like to try it
with fresh spinach and since I had done it only once, it might
not be perfect so tweak it to your heart's (tummy's?) content.
