ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon coarsely chopped garlic
- 8 -10 cups fresh spinach leaves (about 1 1/4 pounds)

- 1⁄4 cup water
directions
- Combine oil and garlic in a large, heavy skillet or wok and cook over medium-high heat until the garlic sizzles and releases its aroma.
- Add the spinach and cook for 1 minute; gently turn to expose all the leaves to the heat.
- Add the fish sauce, pepper, and water, tossing well, then cook (turning often) until the spinach is wilted and tender (1-2 minutes).
- Transfer to a deep platter, sauce and all, and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
