Ingredients for Baked Cheese And Spinach Slk Fel Kousha

  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • Olive Oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • Ground Beef
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup water
  • Gruyere Cheese
  • Parsley

How to Make Baked Cheese And Spinach Slk Fel Kousha

  1. Wash and roughly chop 1 cup of fresh spinach. Cook the spinach in a saucepan with 1/4 cup of water for 3 minutes, or until wilted.
  2. Drain the spinach thoroughly in a colander and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible using your hands or a clean kitchen towel.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium chopped onion and 1 pound of ground meat (beef, lamb, or a mix).
  4. Stir-fry the onion and meat for 5 minutes, until the meat is browned. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
  5. Add 1/2 cup of water and the cooked spinach to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is heated through.
  6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the meat and spinach mixture to a greased 8x8 inch baking dish.
  7. Generously sprinkle 2 cups of grated cheese (your favorite type, such as mozzarella, cheddar, or a blend) over the top.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
