Steps:
- Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add rice and stir until every grain is coated in oil and you hear it start to sizzle. Stir in 2 teaspoons salt, pepper, cayenne, and green onions and cook for about 1 minute.
- Add dill, mint, spinach, and 2 3/4 cups water. Mix until thoroughly combined and bring to a simmer.
- Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until rice is tender, about 25 minutes. If rice is not quite ready at 25 minutes, add a splash of water, cover, and continue to cook until it is ready.
- Uncover and stir well. Cover again and let sit for 5 minutes. Taste and adjust salt if necessary.
- Divide rice mixture evenly into six bowls. Squeeze ½ lemon over each serving, then top with feta cheese, pickled onions, chili flakes, and a drizzle of olive oil.

SPANOKORISO OAMC SPINACH RICE
Freeze your own takeaway! This came from an October 1986 Home and Freezer Digest, a British magazine. It can be a vegetarian main dish, especially if you sprinkle with feta before serving. Fills four 7.5 x 5x 1.25 inch (19 x 13 x 3 cm) foil trays. Use whatever containers work for you. You can use frozen chopped spinach too, just thaw and drain, pressing all the moisture out. And it's great with kale, dandelion greens, etc. Look up edible weeds and use them. Purslane has the most omega 3s in the plant kingdom,tastes like spinach and grows like the weed it is!
