Spinach and Mushroom Stir-Fry Recipe

If you’re looking for a quick, healthy, and delicious meal, this Spinach and Mushroom Stir-Fry Recipe is perfect!

I remember the first time I whipped up this dish after a long day at work. I wanted something nourishing that didn’t take much time to prepare, and this stir-fry quickly became one of my go-to meals.

The combination of earthy mushrooms and fresh spinach creates a delightful harmony of flavors, and it’s so versatile that you can pair it with rice, quinoa, or enjoy it on its own.

Ingredients:

150g fresh spinach, washed
150g mushrooms, sliced (button or cremini mushrooms work well)
15g (1 tablespoon) olive oil or sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
2.5g (1/2 teaspoon) soy sauce or tamari (optional, for extra flavor)
A pinch of red chili flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)

Instructions:

Step 1. Heat the Oil

Start by grabbing a pan and heating the olive oil over medium heat. Once it’s hot, add the minced garlic and sauté it for about 30 seconds until it’s fragrant. This will fill your kitchen with an irresistible aroma!

Step 2. Cook the Mushrooms

Now, toss in the sliced mushrooms. Let them cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. You’ll see them release their moisture and start to brown nicely. This step is crucial for bringing out their earthy flavor.

Step 3. Add the Spinach

Next, add the washed spinach to the pan. Cook it for another 2-3 minutes until it wilts down. Just look at that beautiful green color—it’s a sign of all the nutrients you’re about to enjoy!

Step 4. Season the Stir-Fry

Time to add some flavor! Sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste, and if you’re feeling adventurous, drizzle in some soy sauce and add a pinch of red chili flakes for a bit of heat. Stir everything well to combine.

Step 5. Serve

Finally, transfer your colorful stir-fry to a plate and enjoy your savory and nutritious meal! You can serve it over rice or enjoy it as is for a lighter option.
