Original Recipe Yield 4 servings

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package cottage cheese
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
1 green chile pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 pounds spinach leaves, cut into 2-inch pieces

Directions

Mix cottage cheese, 1 clove of garlic, cardamom, and cloves thoroughly in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion, ginger, green chile pepper, and 2 cloves of garlic; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the spinach and cook until just wilted. Drain any excess liquid, and serve the spinach mixture over the seasoned cottage cheese.
