Poi saag is rich in iron and helps combat anemia. It has a high amount of vitamin C, which is very beneficial for the skin, and is also high in calcium, which strengthens bones. It aids digestion and helps keep your stomach clean. Poi saag contains potassium, manganese, and magnesium, which help regulate blood pressure. I grew this saag in my kitchen garden and made this dish using fresh leaves from there.

Wash the poi saag leaves thoroughly and chop them finely. Peel and wash the potato, then cut it into small pieces. Slice the onion. Peel the garlic and finely chop it along with the green chilies.
