Instructions
Warm the oil, garlic and pepper flakes in the pot over medium heat until the garlic is pale golden, 2 minutes.
Add the spinach a big handful at a time with the salt, turning with tongs as it wilts, 3–4 minutes in all.
Tip off any liquid in the pot, toss with the lemon juice and serve right away.
Notes
- Spinach shrinks to about a tenth of its raw volume; this big pile makes four modest servings.
