I've made spinach with garlic before, but the addition of soy sauce was new to me. I winged this a bit, as I was making just enough for me - perhaps 6 oz of fresh spinach, 2 cloves of garlic, and just a few drops of soy sauce - but you could tell it was there. Forgot about the sugar, will have to try that next time. A delicious side dish for literally just a few minutes of effort.

This is a great way to eat spinach. It's great with the soy sauce. I used the sugar cause it's not a lot. Thanks Lynette :) Made for Photo tag game

Love the simplicity of this spinach dish and how it results in pure goodness. The spinach natural flavor really comes through and it makes for a great side. Thank you breezermom for sharing.

A nice, simple Asian side dish. I used fish sauce instead of soy sauce, just because I love the stuff. The twist worked well for me. The spinach tasted great alongside the Thai chicken I made!! [Made and reviewed for PRMR]
