Spinach with Ginger and Green Chillies (Saag Bhaji)

This is one of my favourite Indian side dishes. This is plenty for two or three.

Small chunk of fresh ginger, peeled and finely sliced
1 onion, finely chopped
Unsalted butter
500g bag frozen spinach, defrosted (or use fresh)
1 tbsp garam masala

Put a generous amount of butter into a large, wide pan and set over a high heat. Add the ginger and stir until the ginger starts to brown, then add the garlic and garam masala and cook for a minute or two more. Add the spinach, and stir until it’s cooked through. Add salt to taste.
