Ingredients

1 bag baby spinach or regular spinach, torn up and with stems removed

sea salt, or regular salt

peanut oil, as needed for frying

Preparation

Pour about 2 inches of peanut oil in your frying pan and heat on high. When it gets that greasy, glossy look, it’s almost ready for frying. It takes 5 to 10 minutes to heat the oil, depending on your stove capacity.

Dry the spinach as much as possible, gather a handful at a time and drop it into the oil.

Flip the spinach over with a slotted spoon so it gets fried on both sides. The spinach should curl up and become wrinkled. This will take 30 seconds max.

Scoop it out of the oil and onto some paper towels to drain.

Sprinkle it with sea salt and serve.
