Mamma's Spinach and Artichoke Dip

Even my dad who claims to hate artichoke loves this dip. For some reason it seems like a very American dip to serve as an appetiser. I am a firm believer for spinach and artichoke dip being featured at any and every party globally. The best way to describe this dish is creamy, slightly spice and well spinach-artichoke-y. Whilst a fantastic dip, it is fantastic dolloped into a falafel wrap, paired with grilled vegetables or part of a warm salad. I can imagine it spooned over a grilled aubergine. Despite being very popular in the US, it definitely reminds of my favourite Middle Eastern cuisine.

Ingredients 

2 large handful of spinach
1 jar (400ml) of artichoke hearts
50g or 1/2 cup vegetarian parmesan
60g or 1/4 cup of cream cheese
