Bahan-bahan

4 porsi

1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large shallot, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
20 ounces fresh baby spinach (yes, it’s a lot!)
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup freshly-grated Parmesan
pinch of ground nutmeg
fine sea salt and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste

Langkah-langkah

In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook for 2–3 minutes, until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds more.
Add the spinach in large handfuls, stirring frequently until wilted. This will take a few batches as the volume reduces.
Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Parmesan and a pinch of nutmeg (if using). Let simmer for 3–5 minutes, stirring often, until the cream thickens slightly.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm as a rich, cozy side dish.
