Spinach with béchamel ( at my own gluten free- dairy free way)

Directions

1. Fresh spinach, garlic, Extra virgin olive oil, paprika, fine salt ,cumin,nutmeg,
2. Preheat the oven 425ºF (225º C) Wash the spinach and remove hard stems. In a steamer ( or a pan with a tight -fitting lid), steam the spinach for 2 min (in batches). Drain an squeeze out all excess water (you have to leave them very dry) .
3. Spread them on a board and cut them in 1cm wide
4. In a pan over medium high heat , heat 1½ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (reserve the ½ remaining),and add 2 tablespoon of minced garlic; cook for about 3 min or until slightly golden, add the spinach and melted them for about 1 min. Add the cumin, salt, nutmeg and water and stir for 2 min. Take the pan out of the heat.
5. In an small pan heat over medium- low heat the remaining ½ tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil until the oil is warm, then take the pan out of the heat, add the paprika , stir for 30 sc, add to the spinach mixture and melted together in the medium-low heat for about 1 min. ( Important: I heat the paprika with the oil to get all the fragance , but if the oil is very hot or you keep it in the heat while stirring, it can burn the paprika and it will get bitter). Reserve.
