Spinach with Apricots or Prunes Preparation

If using fresh spinach, wash and cook lightly. If using frozen leaf spinach, just let it thaw. Either way, drain thoroughly squeezing out water. Heat the oil in a frying pan and saut‚ the onion until browned. Add the butter and when melted, add the spinach, garlic and mushrooms. Cook over a fairly high heat, stirring constantly for about 4 minutes. Now stir in the pomegranate sauce, or the lemon juice and treacle, the saffron, salt and pepper. Finally, stir in the apricots or prunes and mix thoroughly. Transfer to a heavy casserole and add the rosewater, and enough water to cover generously. Cover with a lid and cook over the lowest possible heat (use a diffuser mat if you have one) for about 1 1/4-1 1/2 hours, until very thick and rich. Taste and adjust seasoning, then leave to cool. Serve cold. Converted by MC_Buster. Converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
