Recipe

Sauteed Spinach with Toasted Sesame Oil

Spinach is an easy vegetable to make which is great since it is so good for you.

Times

  • Prep Time : 15 min min
  • Ready Time : 15 min

Servings

2 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons minced ginger
  • 1 (10-ounce) bag fresh spinach (see Ingredient note), tough stems removed
  • 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon reduced-sodium soy sauce

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add sesame seeds, garlic and ginger; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  2. Add spinach and cook, stirring, until just wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in vinegar and soy sauce. Serve immediately.

Ingredient Note: The sturdier texture of mature spinach stands up better to sauteing than baby spinach and it’s a more economical choice. We prefer to serve baby spinach raw.
