Alu Palak

palak alu,aloo,indian recipe ,spinach with potato

Alu Palak!!

A feedback to atul sir for this awesome recipe....i was bored of having palak paneer ...

Only change i made was adding lemon juice at the end,this is done so that the IRON in spinach gets absorbed better in our body.

Ingredients:

250 Grams Potatoes.
250 Grams Palak - Chop in chunks.(spinach)
1 Tablespoon Mustard Oil.
1/2 Teaspoon Mustard Seeds.
A Pinch of Hing
Dried Red Chilies.
1/2 Teaspoon Chopped Garlic.
1/2 Teaspoon Chopped Ginger.​
1/2 Teaspoon Haldi Powder (turmeric)

1.Peel , cube and boil potatoes till just done.
2. In boiling water add 1/2 teaspoon sugar , blanch palak not more than 30 seconds , then plunge into an ice water bath to prevent further cooking .Sugar in boiling water helps greens retain their color. When cool , squeeze palak of ALL water - Set aside.
3. Heat oil , add mustard seeds , dried red chilies and hing , then tip in ginger garlic - allow both to just soften , not color . Now add all masalas and salt , and the potatoes.
4. Gently toss potatoes coating them well - cook covered on minimum heat for 5-6 minutes , don't allow them to color and then add palak.
5. Increase heat , mix and cook covered another 2 minutes. Serve !
