Skill required: Your significant other has a "green" fetish.
10 ounces fresh spinach, well washed, large stems removed
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 - 2 cups buttermilk or thin yogurt
2 eggs
2 tablespoons melted and cooled butter, plus unmelted butter for cooking
1 cup sour cream (optional)
1 tablespoon minced lemon peel (optional)
1. Put spinach in a covered saucepan over medium heat with just the water that clings to its leaves after washing.
2. Cook it until it wilts, just a couple of minutes.
3. Drain, cool, squeeze dry and chop.
4. Heat large skillet over medium-high heat while you make batter.
5. Heat oven to 200 degrees.
6. In a bowl, mix together dry ingredients.
7. Place 1 1/2 cups buttermilk in another bowl.
8. Beat eggs into it, then stir in the melted butter.
9. Stir this into dry ingredients, adding a little more buttermilk if batter seems thick.
10.Stir in spinach.
11.Place a teaspoon or 2 of butter in pan.
12. When butter foam subsides, ladle batter onto skillet, making any size pancakes you like. Adjust heat as necessary; first batch will require higher heat than subsequent batches. Add more butter to pan as needed.
13.Brown bottoms in 2-4 minutes. Flip only when pancakes are fully cooked on bottom; they won't hold together well until they are ready.
14.Cook until second side is lightly browned; as pancakes are done, put them on an ovenproof plate in oven for up to 15 minutes.
15.Mix sour cream and lemon peel together and place a small dollop on each pancake.
6-8 servings.
