Recipes from Russia and the Ukraine :: Russian and Ukrainian Salads and Dressings
You can make a meal of this by serving it with wedges of pita bread. 2 bunches spinach, well rinsed and stemmed
or 1 pkg. pre-washed baby spinach
1/3 c. chopped fresh cilantro
3/4 c. plain yogurt
1/4 c. fresh lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/4 tsp. sugar
Salt and freshly-ground pepper Steam the spinach until it is tender and bright green — about two mins. Drain, cool, and squeeze it to remove excess water. Chop the spinach as finely as you can. In a large bowl, combine it with the remaining ingredients. Mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for one hour or more before serving. Serves 4.
