Step 1
Cut the 8 oz cottage cheese into 1-inch cubes. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, then sear the cubes until golden on two sides, about 4 minutes total. Remove and set aside.
Step 2
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and 3 minced garlic cloves. Cook over medium until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Step 3
Add the 10 oz spinach in handfuls, stirring until wilted, about 3 minutes. Stir in 0.5 tsp turmeric and 0.5 cup heavy cream, then simmer until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Return the seared cottage cheese to the skillet, stir gently to coat, and cook for 2 more minutes until heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 5
Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro if you have it.
