Instructions

  1. Wash 250 g of spinach in two changes of cold water to remove all grit, pinch off any thick stalks and shake dry. Stack the leaves and shred them coarsely into ribbons about 2 cm wide.
  2. Slice 3 spring onions finely, white and green parts alike, and chop 10 g of dill, keeping a pinch back for the finish.
  3. Warm 1 tbsp of olive oil in a small saucepan or deep frying pan over medium-low heat and sweat the spring onions for 3 minutes, stirring, until soft and sweet but not coloured.
  4. Add the shredded spinach a handful at a time, letting each batch collapse before adding the next. Cook 5 minutes over medium heat until fully wilted and the pan is loose with dark green juices.
