This is a pretty easy and quick dish to cook - probably 30 min tops.  This a recipe for 3-4 people, and assuming you're making something else too.  Works with rice, but you may need yogurt or a lentil-daal to accompany it.
INGREDIENTS
5 large potatoes (whatever type) - peeled
2 handfuls of spinach (ideally pre-washed)
2 large cloves garlic - chopped
1 medium onion - rough dice
2-3 Kashmiri dried red chillies - whole
1 tsp fresh ginger - chopped
1 tbsp onion seeds (you can substitute with mustard seeds if you don't want to bother with getting onion seeds just for this recipe).
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp coriander powder
2 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp red chili powder
2 tbsp vegetable oil
Salt to taste
PREPARE
Put the burner on medium.  Pour your oil into a large skillet, and put in the spices (cumin, coriander, turmeric, red chili powder, onion seeds, Kashmiri red chillies),  When the oil starts to sizzle a bit with the spices (make sure they don't burn) - this should take like 5 min - throw in the garlic, onion, ginger.  Give it a good stir.

Then add the potatoes and a good shake of salt (like 1 tsp) make sure you coat the potatoes with all the spices, salt, and aromatics.  Let it rest a bit and keep stirring at intervals of 3-4 min so as not to burn the bottom of the potatoes.  Once the potatoes develop a bit of a crispy edge,  throw in the spinach and give the whole mixture a good stir so that the spinach starts to wilt and blend into the potato mixture.  Once the spinach wilts completely, switch off the burner.  Taste it - check whether you need more salt.

That's it!! Easy peasy!
