Korean spinach (시금치 나물) is one of the most popular side dish (banchan) in Korean restaurants. Generally they are seasoned in salt and sesame oil, and most people think that is the one and only way of making Korean spinach. But there are more… I have posted my version of Korean spinach before and today I would like to add one more. This one is more of southern style rustic version and brings different flavor to the ordinary Korean spinach.
