Sauté the onions on medium heat until they just begin to brown and are translucent. Be sure to move the onions around in the pan every so often to avoid scorching.2Step 2: Add spinach to the pan. If needed, add in a portion at a time and allow the spinach to wilt before adding more. Be sure to gently move the spinach around in the pan to keep it from burning. Once all the spinach has been added and wilted, add in the dill and mix in.3Step 3: Add the water to the pan, cover, and bring to a boil. Add the rice, stir all together, reduce heat to low and cover the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender. If needed, add additional water, but only a couple of tablespoons at a time. If the rice is nearing done but there is still a lot of water, allow it to cook with the lid off so the water evaporates.4Step 4: Once the rice is nearly done, add the desired amount of lemon juice and stir in, cover, and allow to sit off the heat for five minutes. You can always add more lemon juice and olive oil to taste, along with salt and pepper. If you plan to top with feta or grated mizithra, be sparing with the salt since the cheese adds quite a bit.getsaucepan.com/r/37b6c505-9dea-4b77-a56b-7aa56af6dbae · Original: https://mostly-greek.com/2020/09/28/spanakorizo-greek-spinach-and-rice/
