Sautéed Spinach with Curry

I had spinach from the market for dinner, but wasn’t sure how to cook it. I got the idea for this recipe from the cooking tips for Spinach in “From Asparagus to Zucchini”. By the way, "From Asparagus to Zucchini" got the most votes in the recent poll. Every week during the regular CSA season I will try a recipe from this cookbook with one of the items we receive.
