Instructions
- 1
Dice the onion, crush the garlic, wash and drain the spinach, then chop it coarsely.
- 2
Melt the butter in a small pan over medium heat and turn the onion for 3 minutes; add the garlic for 30 seconds.
3 min03:30 - 3
Add the spinach and sprinkle with salt and black pepper; turn for 4 minutes until the volume drops, then sprinkle cornmeal over it and stir for 30 seconds.
4 min04:30 - 4
Spread the spinach around the pan and open wells in the center; crack in the eggs, close the lid, and cook for 4 minutes until the whites set.
4 min04:00 - 5
Remove the pan from the heat and serve it hot directly, balancing it with bread and tea on the side.
💡 Tip: Drain the spinach well after washing; otherwise it steams in the pan and the egg texture suffers. Cornmeal is optional but a Black Sea dible signature, binding the spinach.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Bring the pan straight to the table and serve with warm cornbread or Black Sea chicken flatbread.
