Aloo Palak Methi

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups boiled and peeled potato cubes
  • 4 cups chopped spinach (palak)
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 2 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
  • 5-7 cloves
  • 10-12 peppercorns
  • 3-4 large cardamom
  • 1/2 tsp asafoetida (hing)
  • 2 tsp chopped garlic (lehsun)
  • 3 tsp chopped ginger (adrak)
  • 1 tsp finely chopped green chillies
  • 2 whole dry kashmiri red chillies, broken into pieces
  • 2 tsp coriander (dhania) powder
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric powder (haldi)
  • 3 tsp kasoori methi
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1 cup water

Method:

  1. Heat the oil in a broad non-stick pan. Add cloves, peppercorns, large cardamom and cumin seeds and saute on medium flame for a minute or two. When the seeds turn light brown, add asafoetida and saute for 5-10 seconds.
  2. Add the garlic, ginger, green chilies, red chilies and saute on a medium flame for 1 minute.
  3. Add the potatoes, toss gently and cook on a medium flame for 3-4 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
  4. Add the spinach, coriander powder, turmeric powder, kasoori methi and salt, mix well and cook on a medium flame covered, while stirring occasionally. Add water in stages as necessary to prevent spinach from sticking to the pan. Cook for about 8-10 minutes. Serve hot with any Indian bread.
