Ingredients

• 4 cups Fresh spinach
• 4 large Eggs
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Milk or cream (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Wash the spinach thoroughly and pat it dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Step 2

Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves.

Step 3

Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the milk or cream (if using) along with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Whisk until well combined.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 5

Add the chopped garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not browned.

Step 6

Add the spinach to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 minutes or until the spinach is wilted and tender. Remove the spinach and garlic to a plate and set aside.

Step 7

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low-medium. Pour in the whisked eggs.

Step 8

Stir the eggs gently with a spatula, scraping the bottom of the pan frequently to create soft folds. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until the eggs are just set but still creamy.

Step 9

Return the cooked spinach and garlic to the skillet with the eggs. Gently fold them together to combine.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 11

Serve immediately, either on its own or paired with toasted bread for a complete meal.
