Now this combo is reaaally good. I got addicted with this on my previous assignment here in Japan; ordering a serving or two in some popular family restaurants here. But it was only now that I finally worked on making this combo at home.

It’s quite easy to prepare though.

1. Boil water and sprinkle some salt and pepper. You can also put the Japanese soup flavoring “hondashi” for that slightly Japanese taste.
2. Once boiling, put the spinach and wait for about 2 minutes to let it cook.
3. Drain.
4. Sauté the bacon with olive oil until lightly brown or until natural juice comes out.
5. Add in the hourenso.
6. Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste.

Tada!
