  • 2 tablespoons ghee (clarified butter) or vegetable oil
  • 1 bunch scallions, coarsely chopped
  • 2 dried chiles de árbol or 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons yellow mustard seeds
  • 4 bunches flat-leaf spinach, stemmed, very coarsely chopped
  • Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
  1. Heat ghee in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add scallions, chiles, garlic, and mustard seeds. Cook, stirring often, until garlic begins to brown and mustard seeds pop, about 1 minute.
