Steps

1.  In a medium-size non-reactive saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.  Add the garlic and cook for about 1 minute or until tender.  (Be careful not to let it colour.)  Add the chopped spinach to the pot along with the double cream, thyme, nutmeg, cayenne and salt and pepper.  Cook over low heat uncovered, stirring frequently until the cream has thickened and the spinach is very soft.  Season with lemon and serve immediately.
