Perfect braised spinach

Spinach


For perfect braised spinach with lemon and a hint of sweet nutmeg

Ingredients
Serves Four
400 g spinach
juice of ½ lemon
10 g butter
1 grating nutmeg

Method
The simplest way to cook spinach is in a pan with a little butter, a grating of nutmeg and a tiny squeeze of lemon juice with a lid on to let it steam. This will taste great, and it goes with just about anything – fish or meat. If there is any excess moisture when the spinach is cooked, just tilt the pan so it runs to the other side and pour it away. Let the spinach sit for a minute and then serve.
