Sig's Spinach and Bean Duo

I love spinach and feel it is a lot more versatile than people give it credit. I remembered a meal that I loved and had years ago when on holiday in Tunisia. I think I got it pretty close.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
In pan heat oil , saute your finely chopped onion until the slightly brown . Drain the spinach well , squeezing out the liquid gently. Add the spinach heat through but do not overcook it will lose vitamins and the colour should still be a nice green
- 2
Rinse the beans in a sieve under cold water from tap , add to spinach
- 3
Slowly add the water if needed. Simmer for about 10-15 minutes depending on bean size and consistency that you prefer
- 4
Add the seasonings of pepper , paprika, turmeric, fenugreek, flat leaf parsley (better flavour ) and nutmeg
- 5
Add the salt towards the end as using it from start can prevent the beans to soften or serve salt at the table.
- 6
Prepare the couscous according to package instructions or by making one yourself that you prefer . I use plain and I add dried mushrooms to mine or sun dried tomato
- 7
Serve the spinach and bean dish over the couscous or mix in well with the couscous
- 8
If you don't like couscous try serving this with rice or pasta
