Palak Pulusu is yet another gem of a recipe from Jaya's MIL. It is very similar to Mukkala Pulusu barring a few minor differences. This pulusu has a unique taste because of the palak in there. We like to eat this pulusu with an accompaniment of Plain dal with Tadka. It is heavenly in taste. Also since it can be made in a jiffy, it is ideal on lazy wintry days. Don't you all agree?
Ingredients -
3 cups chopped Palak
Salt, as needed
2-3 Green Chillies
1/2 tsp Mirchi Powder
Sugar 1-2 tsp
Tamarind juice 3 Tbsp
1 tsp Rice Flour (Biyyam Pindi)
1 tsp Besan (Senaga Pindi)
Seasoning (Oil 2 tsp, Mustard seeds 1/2 tsp, Methi seeds 1 pinch, Urad dal 1 tsp, Hing couple pinches, Red chillies 1-2)
Method of Preparation -
In a sauce pan, add Oil and the rest of the seasoning. After the mustard seeds crackle, and the urad dal changes color to brown, saute the chopped palak and also the slit green chillies. Add 3 cups of water and let it simmer for 5 min. Add salt, sugar, tamarind juice and turmeric and mix well.
In a separate bowl, add rice flour and besan to 1/2 a cup of water and blend well.
Add the flour mixed in water to the simmering gravy and mix well. Adjust the taste and enjoy with steaming hot rice and ghee.
