Spinach and Rice

Ingredients:                                        


½ kilo of fresh spinach, chopped, washed, drained

1 carrot

2 tablespoons of long-grain rice

1 cup of canned tomato peeled

2 tablespoons of fresh dill

1 spring onion, chopped

1/3 cups of virgin olive oil

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper

½ cup of water



Directions:


In a pan we pour half of the oil and we sauté the chopped spring onion over high temperature for 8-10 minutes. Add the spinach and carrot and continue to stir. We add the tomato and we let it boil for 15-20 minutes. We then add the rice and we let it boil in medium heat for extra 15 minutes. Add water only if it needs a few more minutes to be cooked.

Once ready add the remaining oil and let it for 10 minutes before served


Tip:


You could try a variation with no tomato and carrot.  My best is to serve it with lots of lemon and having it together with Feta cheese and fresh warm bread.
