2 tablespoons peanut oil

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric

Wash spinach well, in several changes of water, to remove grit.
Heat the ghee and peanut oil in a large skillet or wok.
Stir-fry the sliced onion until golden brown.
Add the garlic and ginger; and stir-fry for a further minute or two.
Mix in the cumin seeds, ground spices and salt.
Finally, add the spinach.

Add more water as necessary to prevent the spinach from sticking to the pan.
