Creamed Spinach With An Edge

I was a weird kid. I loved spinach. It was always my favorite vegetable and I probably could have eaten it three times a day. I'm talking regular steamed spinach here, nothing fancy, no extras. My family is Italian from Florence and if there's anything a Florentine loves, it's spinach! We put it in soup, ravioli, torta and of course plain with olive oil and garlic. When I was older I got to taste creamed spinach for the first time and if I had a bad spinach Jones before , it only made it worse.
Imagine my delight when stumbling across Punjabi spinach 20 years ago when I first started cooking Indian food. Actually it's referred to in most cook books as Punjabi pureed vegetables, but don't let the name throw you off, it's mainly spinach. Lovely green creamy spinach, and surprise surprise, contains no butter or cream whatsoever so it's entirely vegan safe. Once you've had it this way, you'll never go back to plain old run of the mill green stuff with cream and nutmeg.
