1

First remove leaves of spinach from stem and wash properly. Remove all water. Heat 1 to 2 cups of water in pan, boil it. Switch off the flame. Add spinach and close the lid for 1 minute. Remove leaves and immediately place in cold water. You may add ice cubes in this cold water.

Remove water. This procedure keeps the colour of spinach leaves as it is. Keep spinach leaves in a mixer jar, add lemon juice and make a puree.
3

Heat oil in a pan. Add cumin seeds and ginger garlic paste. Saute for a minute. Add onion. Cook till it turns in golden pink colour.

Roast besan in a small pan. Add besan to cooked onion. Add turmeric powder and red chili powder. Saute all this for 2 minutes.
