1
Heat the Olive Oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until shimmering.

3
Stir in the garlic plus the ras el hanout, ground cumin and ground cinnamon; toast for about a minute until the kitchen smells incredible.
4
Add the spinach, turning every piece through the spice base so it's fully coated, and sear lightly.
5
Pour in the tomato puree, bring to a gentle bubble, then cover and simmer until the spinach is tender.
6
Uncover and reduce until the sauce clings to a spoon. Finish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lemon.

Chef's tip

Let the dish rest 5 minutes off the heat before serving so the flavours settle.
