Let me confess here one thing that i always used to like tasty food and would never ever think about its nutrious facts, which i now realise was wrong. It was only after i came to the US that i even started thinking about healthy food(green veg, salads, etc etc)..
My husband would always say try cooking spinach, but it was a big No No for me..
I am now slowly trying to cook more of green veggies and eat healthy
So, This spinach dish was my first try it came out very well..Really tasty
Try it!!
Ingredients:
1) One bunch of fresh spinach
2) Half a cup of grated coconut
3)1/4th cup of split while gram(urad dal)
4)2 cloves of ginger
5)2 tsp cooking oil
6) salt
7) 1/2 tsp cumin powder
8)1tsp Chilli paste..This one you will get in chinese store.. i specially recommend to use this because this has a uniqe sour taste..
If you dont fine it then try mixing 1/2 tsp of lime juice to our normal chilli paste..will do the job
Preparation:
Clean spinach and chop them. Heat oil in a pan , add the split gram and keep the flame on low.
Fry until the gram turns light golden coloured, then add grated coconut and saute of half a minute. Then add chopped spinach and grated garlic..saute of 2 minutes. Add chilli paste(mixed with lime juice), salt and cumin powder. Do not cover it, keep stirring it occationally . cook till all the water has escaped and the dish is dry.
