In the recent weeks, my hubby VJ is very determined to avoid oily junks and have healthy, nutritious food instead. Thanks to him! I tried this Spinach fry as an appetizer :)
Spinach Delight Recipe
serves 2
Ingredients
2 cups of tightly chopped spinach leaves
1/2 cup of grated coconut
1 medium size onion finely chopped
1/4 tsp of mustard seeds
1/4 tsp of urad dal
2 small green chilli finely chopped
2 dry red chillies
a pinch of turmeric powder
a pinch of sambhar / vegetable curry powder
salt to taste
How to make it
Clean and chop the spinach. Dry it well
Heat the oil in a pan. Throw in the mustard seeds, urad dal and dry red chillies. Sauté the onion. Add grated coconut, turmeric powder and fry for 10-25 secs. Add the chopped spinach once its completely dried. Add curry powder and salt to taste and let it be fried to desired taste.
Though I made it for evening snack, it can also be served hot with Rotis and Rice
the spinach fry definitely sounds interesting. brings to mind the crackling spinach, my hubby;s favourite from one of our oft frequented eateries. but it is sauteed with corn flour and a sprinklng of sugar.
