How to Make Spicy Fried Spinach
- Wash spinach thoroughly in several changes of cold water to remove any grit. Drain well and roughly chop.
- Heat ghee and peanut oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.
- Add the sliced onions and stir-fry until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for another minute until fragrant.
- Add cumin seeds and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Stir in garam masala, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
- Add the chopped spinach to the skillet.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until spinach wilts and is tender, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add a tablespoon or two of water if needed to prevent sticking.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve hot as a side dish with rice, naan, or your favorite Indian meal.
