Crispy Spinach

Today, I had this strong craving for something crunchy, but we didn't have any chips nor crackers at home. We did however, have an egg and an opened-half-filled bag of spinach, which I believe will go bad if I don't use it.

So... with a little elbow grease, I turned them into something crunchily satisfying.

What you will need:
Cooking oil
spinach leaves
egg - separated, will use only the whites
a pinch salt and a dash of pepper

Other things you will need:
* a pan
* tongs
* a strainer or platter lined with paper towel to drain spinach after frying.

What to do:
Separate the egg white from the yolk. You will only need the whites.

Beat the egg white until frothy. Season with salt and pepper.

Heat a pan with oil in it.

Dip each spinach into the egg white.

Then pan fry the spinach one at a time. Turn over to cook both sides. It should be cooked when spinach turns into a dark green color and egg white turns a bit golden.

Drain excess oil in a strainer or on a platter with a paper towel.

Serve right away.

This should be good on its own, but sometimes I do dip it in a creamy vinaigrette dressing.
