SPINACH SALAD

(Recipe in English is below. Yogurtlu ispanak salatasi tarifi için burayi tiklayin)

This one is something I serve as a starter, as meze, next to the other things. It is delicious and yet so simple to make. Give it a try!

Ingredients (Serves 3 – 4)

Half a kilo spinach leaves, washed and drained, chopped fine  

spinach leaves chopped fine

3 spoons of flour

3 spoons of olive oil

5 – 6 spoons of strained yoghurt

1 – 2 garlic cloves, crushed with salt to your taste

Method:

1. Heat the olive oil in a pan and add the flour and over a medium heat and using a small pointed wooden spoon, stir quite vigorously to make a smooth, glossy paste.
2. Add small bits of the spinach you chopped at a time and continue stirring. You will see that the spinach will become creamy as it gets mixed with the flour.
3. When all the spinach is finished, turn the fire off and let it cool down.
4. In the meantime prepare the sauce: add the garlic cloves you crushed into the yoghurt and mix well.
5. When the spinach is cool enough, add the yoghurt sauce and mix well. Ready to serve!
