As a child, I remember having Creamed Spinach topped with a sunny side egg for lunch. I guess I liked it because I remember eating it. I know I like it now, and I tend to serve it with Hungarian Pork Schitzel, Mini Meatloaf Patties or even Homemade Pork Grilling Sausages. On the other hand, it would probably be good with a sunny side egg too!
Ingredients
- 1 package frozen spinach
- 2 cloves garlic grated
- 1 1/2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt or to taste
- 1 1/2 cup milk
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients before starting recipe.
- Defrost frozen spinach in microwave and place in colander to drain.
- Melt butter on medium heat in a medium sauce pan, add grated garlic making sure that the garlic does not color but becomes soft, about 1 minute.
- Add flour and stir for a few minutes; the roux should be light colored and is ready when there are bubbles throughout.
- Slowly add milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Add salt and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer and cook until the sauce has a creamy thick consistency, then add the spinach.
- Serve as a side with grilled or fried pork chops.
