Ingredients

• Pasta (spaghetti or linguine) - 150 grams
• Seal oil - 3 tablespoons
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Onion - 1 small, finely chopped
• Cherry tomatoes - 200 grams, halved
• Spinach - 100 grams, fresh

Steps

1. Boil a pot of salted water and cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes.
2. While the pasta cooks, heat the seal oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
3. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
