Method

To make the spinach with cheese, start by washing the spinach thoroughly under running water. Sauté the garlic and shallot in a skillet with a drizzle of olive oil and, once the onion is golden, add the spinach a little at a time and cook it over low heat with the lid on.
Once it has wilted and you have added all of it, season with salt and pepper and keep cooking for a few more minutes.
Now add a little milk, turn up the heat and let it be fully absorbed.
Now add a little butter and a generous handful of grated Parmigiano Reggiano and stir well until creamy.
When the spinach with cheese is nice and creamy, serve it right away. Finally, remember to download our App with exclusive content and fewer ads!
