Channa Palak (Chickpeas & Spinach)

During the week we eat rice, different kinds of rotis, and different kinds of pasta. When I do chapathis like I did for dinner tonight, I don't like to repeat curries and if I come upon a different recipe that uses an ingredient that I have a standard recipe for, I change it - that's how this dish made it to the dining table. Garbanzo beans or Chick peas have been mostly used for hummus in my household growing up, but adding it to some spinach and serving it with some chapathis was not just easy, but healthy and delicious. Alright time to get to the recipe and stop the rambling because it's late and I am exhausted today!

Steps

  1. 1

    Heat some oil in the pan and add the cumin seeds

  2. 2

    A minute later add the onions, green chillies, ginger and garlic paste and sauté until the onions are soft

  3. 3

    Next add the tomatoes and the masala powders

  4. 4

    Add a little water and let this cook for a couple of minutes

  5. 5

    Spinach cooks realllly fast, so add that and let it wilt slightly

  6. 6

    Add the beans and cook until the spinach is fully cooked

  7. 7

    Add some salt and bit more water if needed

  8. 8

    Also if you need to add a bit of the masala powders to balance the taste do that, and let it cook for a little bit

  9. 9

    My curry did not have a thick consistency

  10. 10

    If you want it thick, just mash a bit of the chick peas and it should thicken up

  11. 11

    Serve hot with some rotis or rice

  12. 12

    Now wasn't that simple for a quick dinner menu during a busy work week :)

Welcome to my Blog The Eaterspot. My blogging journey began in March 2010. I had just relocated from the US, and living in Wellington, New Zealand was definitely a whole lot different from the US. The day after I landed here, I began a full time job, but I still had a whole lot of free time after 5pm. I was cooking a lot of new dishes from various cuisines so the blog was born to document my cooking for my friends and family to follow what we are upto as a newly married couple and to see what we were eating!Thanks for visting my spot!
