4 Reviews of Turkish Spinach

Nice, easy dish, but the spinach develops a rather "powdery" taste when its cooked so long. I'd like to try cooking the spinach separately, until it is just wilted, and topping it on the rice later.

I wanted a side dish and did not want rice so I cooked the spinach and just added the other ingredients without the rice and, of course, it cooked much faster, 5 minutes and it was done. It was very nice. I did not use the yogurt sauce, it did not need it. I will deffinately do it again.

Made & reviewed for Dish of The Week in the NA*ME Forum! My family & I really enjoyed this simple dish. I was eager to try it as it is similar to an Algerian spinach dish that we love. The real difference is just that the Algerian versian has a touch of cinnamon in it which is amazing with any tomato & garlic combo! I was worried about the spinach overcooking so like another reviewer mentioned, I added it after the rice & cooked it for about 4-6 minutes. I bought a bag of ready prepared spinach so saved a little time on the prep. I will definitely try this again! Thanks for a lovely recipe

This was delicious & everybody loved it! I used prewashed baby spinach & added it near the end as suggested by others. Made for NA*ME Recipe of the Week.
