About the recipe
This quick and easy side dish is a real delight. Frozen spinach is suggested here as it is more economical and speedy to prepare, but you can substitute it with finely chopped fresh spinach, if you prefer.
Recipe From
Ingredients
300g frozen spinach (or 800g fresh spinach)
1 small clove of garlic
500g Greek yoghurt
sunflower oil
40g raisins
extra virgin olive oil
Method
- Place the spinach in a saucepan with a few tablespoons of water and cook over a medium heat for a few minutes, or until defrosted (if using frozen) and just cooked. Take off the heat and leave to cool.
- Peel and crush the garlic and mix with the yoghurt, ¾ of a teaspoon of sea salt and a generous grind of black pepper. Stir in the cooled spinach.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of sunflower oil in a small pan and fry the raisins for 1 to 2 minutes, or until starting to plump up.
- Scatter over the spinach and finish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil just before serving.
