    Categories: Greek, Rice
    Yield: 4 Servings

    120 ml Extra-virgin olive oil; plus
    -more for drizzling (This
    -is optional, but not
    -really)
    1 Brown onion; finely chopped
    1 ts Sugar
    1 lg Leek; finely chopped
    1 1/2 bn English spinach; up to 2,
    -roughly chopped
    3/4 c Medium grain rice; (Do not
    -use long grain rice, it
    -won't work!)
    2 Spring onions; up to 3
    1 c Water
    1/2 c Flat leaf parsley; chopped
    1/2 c Dill; chopped
    Salt and pepper; to taste
    1 1/2 Lemons; juice of
    50 g Greek feta; up to 100 g
    -(optional)

    Heat 4 tb of oil in a large pan. Saute onion and sugar on medium heat
    for about 2 minutes. Add leek and saute until softened (about 3
    minutes). Add spinach and the rest of olive oil, reduce heat, cover
    and for about 3-4 minutes until spinach is wilted.

    Stir through rice and cook for another 3 minutes. Add spring onions
    and saute for another minute.

    Add water, bring to a boil. Cover and cook on low heat for 10 minutes.

    Add dill and parsley. Cover again and cook for another minute.

    Remove from heat, add lemon juice. Cover pan and set aside to allow
    flavours to infuse rice to fluff up.

    Serve with crumbled feta, extra lemon and olive oil juice if desired.
    Crispy roasted chickpeas are also very good as garnish/ topping.
