ESPINACA A LA CATALAN (CATALAN-STYLE SPINACH)

Steps:

• *NOTE: Original recipe specified a golden delicious apple. However any apple variety that holds its shape well for baking will work in this recipe: Rome beauty, braeburn, gala, for example.
• Heat the olive oil in a large pan over a medium-high flame.
• When the oil is very hot, add the apple cubes and cook until they are lightly browned; about 1-2 minutes.
• Add the pine nuts and cook until they are lightly browned; about 20-30 seconds. Watch pan carefully as the pine nuts can burn quite easily! *Constantly stir the nuts to avoid burning.*.
• Add the raisins and the 1/2 teaspoon salt; stir together. Add the spinach and sauté very fast until it just starts to wilt; about another 20-30 seconds.
• Now remove the pan from the heat; the spinach will continue to wilt off the heat.
• Add salt to taste, and serve immediately.
