Tips & Warnings
Fresh spinach can be stored up to one week in a plastic bag in the refrigerator. Any extra spinach can be kept handy for pasta sauces, other salads or sandwiches.
This vinaigrette goes well with spinach. Adjust the other ingredients (tomato, bean sprouts, and so on) to suit your own palate.
Use a good-quality Indian curry powder for this dish; add a little more to the dressing if you like. You can also increase the lemon for a stronger citrus taste.
