- 12 ounces fresh spinach, washed and trimmed from a bag or in a bunch
- 1 - 2 cloves garlic, crushed or minced fine
- 1 small onion, sliced into petals (about 1/2 cup) OR a couple green onions cut into bite sized pieces
- pinch red pepper flake optional
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- salt to taste
- sesame seeds for garnish
Saute the onion over medium heat in olive oil optionally seasoned with red pepper flake. Add the garlic when the onion has started to change color. Take care not to burn the garlic.
Reduce the heat and add a large handful of spinach. Add more as the first bunch wilts.
Continue until all the spinach had been cooked.
Season with salt, soy sauce and sesame oil
Garnish with sesame seeds before serving.
