  • 2 medium onions; chopped
  • 1 medium green pepper; cleaned and chopped
  • 5 medium potatoes; peeled and chopped
  • 4 cups boiling water
  • Oil and/or butter for frying

  • Clean and chop the onions, green pepper and potatoes.
  • Add potatoes to the spinach and close the lid tightly. You may place a heavy weight on the lid until the spinach starts settling in the pot.

  • Drain very well until no water remains.
  • Meanwhile, fry onions and green pepper in a pan with oil and/or butter until lightly browned.
