Trim the spinach leaves, wash thoroughly, and drain. Peel and finely dice the onions. Cut the spinach leaves into 1-centimeter-wide strips. Heat oil in a pan and fry the onions. Add the turmeric and fry for half a minute. Add the spinach, top up with water, and simmer for about five minutes, until the spinach is soft. Drain in a colander and let cool. Peel the garlic and press it through a press. Mix with the yogurt and sour cream. Fold the spinach into the yogurt. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.
