A recipe with slight variations from the "traditional" spanakorizo (spinach with rice). Light, healthy and with more fibre thanks to the brown rice that substitutes the typical medium-grain white rice that most people use for this recipe... An unbelievably tasty, wholesome and quick dish with very few calories!!!

Steps

1

Wash and strain the spinach.
2

Sauté the onion in a little olive oil using a deep non-stick pan.
3

Add the spinach and sauté a little together with the onion.
4

Add the tomato sauce, the vegetable stock, the dill, the ketchup and stir well. Add a little hot water so that the vegetable stock dissolves.
5

Then add the brown rice and stir. Make sure that the liquids cover the rice and the spinach well and if necessary, add some more hot water.
6

Cover with the lid and boil over low heat until the brown rice is done. It takes about 8-10 minutes for the rice to be cooked.
7

As soon as the rice is ready remove the lid and if the liquids are too many, boil over strong heat until they evaporate.
8

Serve with freshly ground black pepper.
