1tbspunsalted butter

1tbspvirgin olive oil

¼tspfreshly ground black pepper

¼tspnutmeg,freshly grated

Preparation

Wash and drain the spinach.

At serving time, heat the butter and oil until very hot in a large skillet.

Add ½ of the spinach (still wet from washing), and stir well.

When it begins to wilt, add the remainder of the spinach to the skillet, and cover with a lid.

Cook the spinach for 1 minute over high heat, and then remove the lid.

The spinach will be wilted, and liquid will have emerged from it.

Add the salt, pepper, and nutmeg, and mix well.

Continue cooking, uncovered, over high heat for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has boiled away.

Serve.
