BM #138 Week 2 Day 3 -
Aloo Palak is a more of an everyday kind of a sabji at home and also very popular with the kids.
I tend to add more spinach than potatoes but that is a personal preference. So feel free to adjust the quantity of greens.
Ingredients -
Spinach chopped 2 cups
Potatoes peeled and diced 2 medium sized
Onions finely chopped 1/2 cup
Salt, Turmeric, Red Chili Powder, Coriander Powder as needed
Ginger-Garlic-Green Chili Paste 1-2 tsp (or to taste)
Seasoning (Oil 1 Tbsp, Cumin Seeds 1 tsp, Dry Red Chili 1)
Method Of Preparation -
In a heated heavy bottomed pan, add oil, cumin seeds and red chili. After the cumin seeds crackle, add the onions, ginger-garlic-green chili paste and sauté until the onions are translucent.
Then add the diced potatoes and turmeric and sauté until the potatoes are cooked through. Add in the spinach, salt, coriander powder, red chili powder, mix well and cover the pan.
Let the spinach cook and the flavors blend in for about 2-3 minutes and remove from heat.
I am really wondering why I have not tried this combination. I have frozen spinach in my freezer and it will be perfect to make this with chapathis...
This is a great everyday curry that goes without any complaints. I love your simple and clear instructions on making this curry.
