Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Pierce the beef all over with a fork; season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and the rosemary in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook, turning, until browned, 8 minutes. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce. Transfer to the oven; roast until a thermometer inserted into the center reaches 125 degrees F for medium rare, about 25 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pierce the potatoes all over with a fork. Microwave until tender, about 15 minutes. Heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring, until incorporated, 5 to 6 minutes. Slowly add the milk; cook, whisking, until slightly thickened, 1 minute. Stir in the spinach, sour cream and the remaining 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce; season with salt and pepper. Simmer until warm, about 2 minutes.
• Slice the beef. Halve the potatoes and fluff with a fork; top with the creamed spinach. Season with salt.

CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• Wash the spinach in several changes of water to get rid of any grit. Drain the spinach but keep some of the water clinging to the leaves. Heat the butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the spinach and garlic. Cook, turning frequently, until the spinach has wilted down evenly. Remove the garlic and put the spinach into a colander and let it drain well. Press out as much liquid as you can from the leaves and chop them coarsely.
• Heat the skillet again over medium-high heat and add the cream and nutmeg; cook until it reduces a bit, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and parmesan and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the spinach is hot, about 5 more minutes. Serve immediately.

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• COOK THE SPINACH (if using fresh spinach): Heat a very large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add all the spinach with the water still clinging to its leaves, you may have to firmly pack it. Cover the pan tightly (weight the lid down, if necessary). Leave the spinach to cook for about 2 minutes, then turn it over so that the wilted leaves are on the top. Cover and repeat the process a few times more, until all spinach is nicely wilted. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature. Drain spinach and reserve the pot that you cooked the spinach inches DO NOT WASH OR WIPE CLEAN.
• If you don't have a salad spinner (OR if using frozen spinach), squeeze the spinach dry with your hands a little at a time, squeezing as much liquid as possible from the leaves. Use paper towels and gently blot the spinach to help it dry. Chop the spinach leaves coarsely and set aside.
• MAKE A ROUX: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour with a wooden spoon, to make a loose paste. Cook for about 1 minute. As soon as it balls up into a paste, exchange the wooden spoon for a wire wisk and in a steady stream, whisk in the warm milk. Stir slowly, until the roux comes to a simmer, about 2 minutes, stirring continuously, until the sauce has thickened.
• Add the cream, salt, and pepper, and stir for 1 minute more. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cheese to melt.
• ONION MIXTURE: In the same skillet where the spinach was cooked, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until onions are translucent.
• ASSEMBLY: Add the cooked spinach and the cheese sauce to the pan and stir together over medium heat until well mixed and heated through. Taste for seasoning, and transfer to a heated and covered serving dish.

STEAKHOUSE CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with enough salted water to cover the spinach and bring it to a boil. Add the spinach to your boiling water and cook until beginning to wilt, about 1 minute. Drain immediately into a colander and rinse with cold water until the spinach is cool to the touch. Set aside.
• Bring a large skillet or non-stick frying pan to medium-low heat with the butter. Once the butter melts, add the onion and garlic and saute until softened and the onion is translucent and fragrant or about 8-10 minutes.
• Add the seasoning (salt, ground black pepper, and ground nutmeg) and stir into the sauteed onion and garlic, then add the all-purpose flour and stir it in as well. Cook the flour paste for 2-3 minutes to cook off the flour taste, then slowly whisk in the half & half and bring it to a boil.
• Reduce heat to low and stir in the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Stir until all of the cheese is melted, smooth, and thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Squeeze handfuls of the drained and rinsed spinach until you've squeezed as much excess liquid out as possible. Transfer to a cutting board then roughly chop all the spinach to strips that are roughly 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch in width.
• Add the Parmesan cheese and chopped spinach to the cream sauce, stir to break up the spinach and melt the Parmesan. Once the spinach is heated to your satisfaction remove from heat and serve immediately.
