Healthy Creamed Spinach

🧂 Ingredients

• 2 cups spinach

  about 450-500 g / 0.9 lb., thawed and tightly packed
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil

  or 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1 large brown onion

  thinly sliced
• 2/3 teaspoon sea salt
• 2 large cloves of garlic

  finely diced
• 1 teaspoon mild curry powder
• 1/2 cup coconut cream

  the thickened part from the can
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

• 1 Defrost spinach during the day, or place frozen spinach balls or blocks in a
  bowl with hot water for about half an hour to an hour. Strain and squeeze some
  of the excess liquid out with your hands. Spinach doesn’t need to be dry; it can
  still have some liquid in it which will add moisture to the sauce. Roughly slice
  handfuls of spinach in half.
• 2 Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add coconut oil and bring the
  heat down to medium. Add the onion and salt and sauté for about 8 minutes,
  stirring a few times, until softened and golden.
• 3 Add spinach, garlic and curry powder and stir through with the onion for about a
  minute. Use the spatula to break down the clumps of spinach. Then add coconut
  cream and lemon juice and stir through for another minute until hot and well
  incorporated. As spinach is already pre-cooked, you only need a couple of
  minutes to combine and heat everything together. Taste for salt and season with
  a little extra if needed.
• 4 Serve with steak, chicken or fish.
