Recipes with Spinach
4 recipes
There are 4 recipes here that use Spinach, and every one of them is scored against what is actually in your fridge before it is shown. The quickest is Stir-Fried Spinach and Corn at 10 minutes; the longest, Simple Gado-Gado, takes 35. 3 of them finish in twenty minutes or less, which is usually what matters on a weeknight.
None of these need an oven, an air fryer, or a microwave — a stove and a pan is enough. 4 are vegetarian. 3 have no chili at all, so they work for children. 1 are properly spicy.
Spinach turns up most often alongside Sweet corn, Peanut, Bean sprouts and Long bean — if you have one or two of those as well, more of this list becomes cookable tonight rather than after a shopping trip. Add what you have to your fridge and the recipes reorder themselves around it, with anything missing collected into a shopping list.
Clear Spinach and Corn Soup
A clear broth naturally sweetened by corn. The spinach goes in last and comes straight off — ten seconds too long already ruins it.

Simple Gado-Gado
Boil the vegetables separately, not together. Each has its own timing, and combining them gets all of them wrong.

Stir-Fried Spinach and Corn
Six minutes total. The spinach goes in last and comes straight off — this is not a vegetable you can walk away from.

Spinach with Sesame Dressing
Blanch briefly, then squeeze hard. Any water left behind thins the dressing and ruins it.
