How to Make Stir-Fried Spinach with Eggs: A Complete Guide

Stir-fried spinach with eggs is a quick, nutritious, and delicious dish enjoyed worldwide. Here’s a simple yet comprehensive guide to perfecting it.

Ingredients:

- 200g fresh spinach, washed and trimmed

- 2 large eggs

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 tbsp cooking oil (or sesame oil for extra flavor)

- 1 tsp soy sauce

- ½ tsp salt (or to taste)

- Pinch of pepper (optional)

Steps:

1. Prepare the eggs: Beat the eggs in a bowl, add a pinch of salt, and mix well. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok over medium heat, pour in the eggs, and scramble until lightly set. Remove and set aside.

2. Cook the spinach: In the same wok, add 1 tsp oil and minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds). Add spinach and stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until wilted. If the spinach is too dry, splash in 1 tbsp water to help it cook.

3. Combine and season: Return the scrambled eggs to the wok. Add soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together for 1 minute, ensuring the spinach is coated evenly.

Tips for Success:

- For extra flavor, add a dash of oyster sauce or a pinch of sugar.

- Don’t overcook the spinach to retain its crisp-tender texture.

- Serve hot with steamed rice for a balanced meal.
