Saute the green onion: add the ¼ cup of olive oil to a medium-sized pot and place it over medium-high heat. Once hot, toss in the green onions and saute them for a couple of minutes.

Add and wilt the spinach: Add some of the spinach to the pot (you most likely won’t be able to add all of it at once) and stir it in with the green onions until they wilt down. Then add more spinach, and repeat this step until all of the spinach is added and wilted.

And the rice and liquid of choice (water, or stock) and dill (optional). Then stir everything together

Cook the rice: Let the liquid in the pot come to a boil, then cover it with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Then let everything cook undisturbed for 20 minutes.

Finish the dish: Take the pot off the heat and add the lemon juice followed by salt & pepper to taste. Then give everything a good stir until thoroughly combined. Again this dish is meant to be rather saucy so don’t worry if there’s some liquid still left. But if you want to reduce the liquid you can continue to cook everything with the lid off for 5 minutes.

Serve the spanakorizo in bowls and enjoy!
