Fresh spinach with raisins and pinenuts

You’ve probably gathered by now that I am very fond of spinach. This dish goes with anything.

Ingredients

2 Tbsp	Extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup	Pine nuts
1	Garlic clove, thinly sliced
500 g	Spinach, young leaves with thicker stems removed, washed (Main)
¼ cup	Raisins, use golden variety
1	Lemon, use a squeeze

Directions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat.
2. Add the pine nuts and garlic and cook until the pine nuts begin to colour. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
3. Add the spinach (in batches) with any water that is clinging to its leaves and cook until wilted and soft, all the while tossing it around the frying pan with a wooden spoon.
4. Return all spinach to the frying pan with the pine nuts and garlic. Season with salt then stir in the raisins and toss well to warm through and plump a little.
5. Squeeze over the lemon juice and serve.
