A perfect side dish for mashed potatoes, this creamed spinach is insanely creamy. Made with sour cream instead of sweet cream, it's balanced and delicious.
In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk fast (to prevent flour form burning) to make a roux. Whisk in sour cream and milk.
Add the spinach, egg, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Keep whisking until incorporated and cook on for about 10 minutes, maintaining a simmer throughout.
Taste and add more seasoning if needed. Serve warm.
Notes
About garlic powder: In this particular recipe, I prefer powder over fresh garlic. I don't want to bite into a tiny piece of garlic when I eat creamed spinach and the only way I can prevent that is by using garlic powder. If you're not as picky as me, feel free to use fresh garlic.
