- 1 cup vegetable or chicken stock
- 8 oz spinach
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons sesame seeds
Instructions
- Heat a large pot on medium-high heat then add about a tablespoon of oil. Add the shallots and cook until soft. Add in garlic and cook for a few more seconds, or until fragrant.
- Pour in chicken stock and toss in spinach. Stir and cook for a couple of minutes, or until the spinach has wilted.
- Remove spinach and carefully squeeze out excess liquid.
- Transfer spinach to a bowl and season with soy sauce and sesame oil. Garnish with sesame seeds on top and enjoy!
Notes
- Vibrant Spinach: Watch the spinach closely while cooking since it won't take long to finish. As soon as it's wilted and vibrantly green, remove & drain it quickly.
