Italian Sauteed Spinach And Spinach With Brussels Sprouts Food

ITALIAN SAUTEED SPINACH AND SPINACH WITH BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• For the Fried Italian Sauteed Spinach:
• In a large frying pan, add the oil and place the wet-washed spinach in the frying pan before it gets hot to avoid splattering.
• Saute the spinach adding salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste until it's wilted.
• This takes around 5 to 8 minutes.
• If it's not as tender as you prefer your spinach softer, just add more broth or water and continue to saute the spinach until the desired doneness.

BRUSSEL LEAF AND BABY SPINACH SAUTé

Steps:

• Working with one brussels sprout at a time, peel each individual leaf, starting from the outside and working toward the middle. Continue to peel until you get to the tough core where it is just too tight to pull any more leaves. Discard the core and put the leaves in a big bowl. Repeat with the remaining brussels sprouts.
• Over medium heat, warm the olive oil in a large frying pan. Add all of the brussels leaves and sauté for about 30 seconds. Add the vinegar and maple syrup and toss to coat. Add the spinach to the pan and toss until it is just barely wilted. It is better just slightly underdone in this case, as it will continue to cook in its own heat.
• Sprinkle with the salt and Marcona almonds and serve immediately.
