Spinach Banchan

One of my favourite side dishes at a Korean restaurant is the Spinach.  I can never get enough.  So it's about time I try it at home since it is not just me who like it.  I tried the Spinach banchan on Maangchi and the whole family loved it.  I normally double or triple this recipe.
