Ingredients
- 450 grams Fresh spinach
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Red chili flakes (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Wash the spinach thoroughly and pat it dry. If the spinach has long stems, you can trim them if you prefer a more tender dish.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the avocado oil.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and stir frequently for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
Step 4
Toss the fresh spinach into the skillet. Stir constantly as it wilts down, which will take about 2-3 minutes.
Step 5
Once most of the spinach has wilted, reduce the heat to low and add the soy sauce, sesame oil, red chili flakes (if using), salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly coat the spinach.
Step 6
Turn off the heat and transfer the stir-fried spinach to a serving bowl immediately to avoid overcooking.
Step 7
Serve warm as a side dish, and enjoy your keto-friendly, nutrient-packed spinach stir-fry!
