Add red wine and stock before cooking once more until it’s reduced by half again. Strain into a clean pan and whisk 25g of the butter in before seasoning with salt and freshly ground pepper
Heat a frying pan and add more butter and spinach. Cook until the spinach has wilted down then season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Drain the spinach onto kitchen paper
