This is a really simple recipe, but I thought the technique was interesting and effective, and above all, this was really delicious spinach! Almost put the potato pancakes next to it to shame. Almost...
This recipe comes from Dorie Greenspan's Around My French Table.
Lemon-Steamed Spinach
2 bags spinach
1 T. olive oil
Grated zest of one lemon
Salt and pepper
If your steamer is large enough, go ahead and put the spinach in it now. Otherwise, you'll want a big bowl. Put the spinach in it and drizzle over the olive oil and sprinkle with the lemon zest, salt and pepper. Toss it like you're making a salad. Check a leaf; if it's dry, add a bit more oil. Put the steamer basket over water, heat the water, and let steam 2-3 minutes. Wonder what happened to all that spinach and enjoy the simple deliciousness.
