Ingredients

  • 5 cups fresh spinach chopped
  • ½ cup coconut milk (you may use cashew but it will change the taste)
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp cumin seeds
  • ½ tsp mustard seeds
  • 2 tsp grated ginger
  • 3 cloves garlic peeled & pounded
  • 2 pimento peppers chopped (optional)
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • salt & black pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp olive oil

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1
Heat a large saute pan on med-high heat and add olive oil
Step 2
Add cumin and mustard seeds, once they start to pop add the ginger, garlic, pimento and cilantro and stir.
Step 3
Add half the amount of milk and stir. Allow to cook and bubble for 3 minutes stirring to prevent burning
Step 4
Add the spinach and sprinkle in the ground cumin, salt and pepper.
Step 5
Cook for 5 minutes, until the spinach has wilted but not released all of its liquid. Taste for seasoning.
Step 6
Add more milk if you're not detecting a slightly sweet creaminess to it.
Step 7
Dish is done when spinach is still bright green but has absorbed the flavour
Note
There should be a bit of gravy from the milk once done. If not, add more milk. You may use 1/3 of a jalapeno pepper deseeded instead of the pimento
