Instructions
 

  • Clean the palak leaves well and cut them. In a pan heat oil or ghee and tip in the cumin seeds.
  • When they crackle, add the ginger and green chillies. Now add the onion and saute for a minute.
  • Add the spinach and coriander, turmeric powders. Add salt carefully as this sabzi reduces a lot in quantity.
  • Simmer it to cook. No need to add any water as the spinach leaves water and it will be enough to cook.
  • Once the sabzi is cooked and the water is dried up heat a little ghee in a small pan and saute the crushed garlic and make it golden brown.
  • Mix it to the prepared sabzi and mash a little with the spoon to mix well. This is usually made in Satai / Satam with mitho lolo. It also goes well with jowar or bajre ki roti.
