Ayib be gomen (spinach with spiced fresh cheese)

Method

1. Rinse the spinach to remove any grit. Place in a large bowl and cook in a microwave for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Alternatively, place in a medium saucepan and cook over a low heat until wilted. Drain in a colander.

2. Meanwhile heat oil and butter in a small saucepan, fry garlic, ginger and chilli.

3. Take off the heat, stir in the spinach, ricotta and freshly chopped parsley.
