For taste and presentation I would give this 5 stars plus but the spinach amount is too vague-1 bunch really doesn't tell me how much because there are all different "bunch" sizes. I used just over 2 cups of fresh spinach chopped. Perhaps a bit more cardamon . We loved the dish - It is attractive, tasty and so healthy. I didn't use any butter just No oil spray. Thanks for a lovely vegetable dish that will brighten any meal
