Clean the fresh spinach with water.
Sauté two whole, unminced garlic cloves in a pan with olive oil. Then add the spinach (still moist) and sauté in the pan for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once ready, drain them and press them to remove excess water.
Chop the spinach into pieces.
Crack the eggs into a bowl with the pecorino, black pepper and salt. Mix until smooth.
Add the spinach to the mixture.
Pour a drizzle of oil into the same pan where the spinach was cooked and add the omelet mixture. Cook for about 15 minutes over medium/low heat with the lid on.
Check the cooking: If the bottom looks cooked and doesn't stick, turn the omelet over (use a plate to help).
Continue cooking for 3/4 minutes without the lid.
And there you have it, your spinach omelet is ready!
