2 onions
1 cup rice
6 tablespoons olive oil
salt

2 tablespoons freshly chopped dill
2 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley
juice of 1/2 lemon

Instructions

Spanakoriso. Wash and clean the spinach thoroughly. Cut the leaves 2 to 3 times. Peel the onions and cut in fine pieces. Wash the rice. Fry the onions in 4 tablespoons olive oil until glassy. Add the spinach to the onions and cook briefly. Add salt, pepper and the herbs. Add the rice, the remaining olive oil and 1 1/2 cups water. Cook at low heat in the closed pot for 20 minutes. Stir from time to time in order to prevent from sticking to the pot. Add the lemon juice before serving.
