Palak Hashi/ Hasi

Palak Hashi or Hasi (meaning Raw) is a everyday dish from the Uttara Karnataka homes. A very simple yet tasty raitha that can be had along with rice. I have prepared it using palak. This can prepared using any other veggies (boiled or raw).

Notes
Raw veggies also can be made use of. Traditionally it is the raw vegetables that are used. Because it is palak, I have boiled it to tender.
Any veggies/ leafy vegetables can be used.
You can make it even more spicier adding more green chillies.
You can use either sour or sweet curd.
