In a cooking pot, add olive oil and heat for a moment. Add onions and saute. Add ground beef and cook until beef is brown. Add allspice, cinnamon, and salt. Mix. Add spinach and saute with meat for a moment. Once it's all mixed well together, add water to the pot , just enough to cover the spinach Cover and let the spinach meat mixure boil and then turn it down to medium heat and let it simmer/boil for a good 30 minutes. Meanwhile, get a saute pan and add some olive oil, the garlic, and the chopped cilantro and saute' that mixture together. Add cilantro/garlic mixture to the spinach (after the spinach has cooked for 30 minutes). Cover and let it simmer for about 15 more minutes. Serve with rice and squeeze lemon juice on top!
\tUsing frozen chopped spinach works better than fresh spinach. It does not turn out the same if you use fresh. The frozen chopped is much better. I have tried both. Trust me!
\tBe sure when adding water to the pot that you don't add too much. You want just enough to cover the spinach. The spinach will release some water too!
\tSqueezing the lemon on top of the spinach dish when it's being served is the most important part of the dish! Don't forget to do that, or you'll miss out on the awesome taste of this dish!
