2 1/2 pound fresh spinach(or 3 10 oz pk
af 2 tbls butter 2 tbls

olive oil 1/8 tsp nutmeg 3 tbls flour 1 cup milk(warmed) salt and pepper to
taste I did some research on Florentine, and decided there is no one recipe to
follow, so I`ll give you my version. The florentine part of tne recipe is
basically a bed of spinach. The meat is varied, such as fried fish, veal
cutlets, sliced steak. pork cutlets, chicken cutlets. Use your imagination.

Wash and cook the spinach in a small amount of water. Drain well (squeeze
with hands when cool enough), chop coarsely. In a large pan melt butter in
olive oil and when hot add spinach and fry lightly. Season with salt, pepper,
+ nutmeg. Sprinkle in the flour, add the warm milk and stir. Simmer for a few
minutes. Transfer to a baking dish and keep warm in oven. Prepare meat or
fish. When ready top the spinach with the meat and serve hot.
