Steps:
- Rinse the rice well a few times until the water runs clear. Put the rice in a bowl and add water to cover it by 1 inch. Let is sit to soak for 20 minutes or until you are easily able to break one grain of rice between your fingers.
- Heat ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil in a braising pan. Add the onions and cook for 5 minutes, stirring regularly, until soft and golden brown. Add the spinach, lemon juice, garlic, tomato paste, and a big pinch of kosher salt and black pepper. Sautee the spinach until just wilted. Stir in the mint and dill weed.
- Drain the rice well and add it to the pan. Add 1 ½ cups of warm water. Bring to a boil for 3 minutes until the water reduces a bit. Turn the heat to low and cover.
- Let the rice cook undisturbed for 20 minutes or until the rice is tender and fully cooked through and all the liquid has been absorbed.
- Once cooked, let the rice sit covered for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
- When ready, fluff the rice with a fork and garnish for feta and parsley, if you like.

SPINACH AND LEMON RICE PILAF
Great side dish for roast or grilled chicken, grilled steak or fish. The vegetables and lemon give a wonderful fresh garden taste. You can vary the amounts of the veggies to your taste. I use just a little more rice to stock than usual as I prefer a slightly drier pilaf.

- Combine the rice with 3 cups water (for brown rice) or 2 1/2 cups water (for white rice) in a saucepan. Bring to a slow boil, then lower the heat, cover, and simmer gently until the water is absorbed, about 30 minutes (for brown rice) and 15 minutes (for white). If the rice isn’t done to your liking, add 1/2 cup more water and simmer until absorbed.
- If you’d like a super fine chop of the baby greens and herbs, combine them in a food processor with the scallions and parsley. Pulse until the mixture has the consistency of pesto, more or less. Otherwise, finely simply chop the greens, scallion, and herbs by hand.
- Once the rice is done, heat the oil in a large skillet or stir-fry pan. Add the garlic and sauté over low heat until golden, not more than a minute or two.
