Step by Step Method

Step 1

Place spinach and salt in a heavy 4-5 quart casserole.

Step 2

Cover tightly and cook over medium heat until spinach is tender, about 10 minutes.

Step 3

Drain spinach, squeezing it completely dry a handful at a time. Chop coarsely and set aside.

Step 4

Melt butter in a large, heavy skillet over moderate heat. Add onions and chilies and cook, stirring frequently, until soft but not brown, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in coconut milk and peanuts and bring to a simmer over moderate heat. Reduce heat to its lowest point. Cook uncovered, stirring frequently, 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Add spinach and cook until heated through, 4-5 minutes more.
