A nourishing vegetable dish where fresh spinach is sautéed with ground meat and thickened with the addition of rice, served with a drizzle of garlicky yogurt on top. Light yet hearty, it's a classic on the everyday table.
Sauté the onion in oil, then add the ground meat, and cook until it releases and reabsorbs its liquid.
Sauté the tomato paste and add the rice, stirring for a few minutes so the rice combines with the oil.
Add the spinach to the pot, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, cover with a lid, and cook over low heat until the rice and spinach soften in their own liquid.
Mix garlic into the yogurt and drizzle over the hot spinach dish before serving.
Important: While washing the spinach, rinse it several times, changing the water to remove any soil residue. Once the rice is added, cook over low heat without opening the lid, or the rice won't soften properly. The yogurt sauce should be added on top when the dish is ready to serve, and should not be boiled.
If you roughly tear the spinach by hand instead of chopping it, its fiber structure is less damaged during cooking and the dish gains a firmer texture; leaves finely chopped with a knife can become mushy and smooth when overcooked.

Sofrada hemen bitti, çok beğenildi.
