In a pressure cooker pan, add washed and chopped sarson and spinach. Add chopped ginger, garlic and green chilli. Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder and salt. Add water. Pressure cook for 3-4 whistles.

Let the pressure cooker cool by itself. Open the lid and coarse crush the mixture with the help of a hand blender or grinder. Add sorghum flour - jowar atta. (Maize flour is used. Since I did not have maize flour I have opted to use sorghum flour). Stir the mixture and then simmer and cook for 20-25 minutes on low heat. The mixture will start to thicken as it simmers. The saag mixture will be ready after 25 minutes. Keep it aside.

For the final tempering /tadka - Heat ghee in a pan. If you want to make vegan, add oil instead of ghee. When the ghee heats, add cumin seeds and let it crackle. Add finely chopped onion, ginger, garlic and green chilli (you can keep onions, garlic, ginger and green chilli medium chopped). Add salt and saute till onions are translucent and soft.

Add red chilli powder and mix well. Add the thickened saag mixture. Mix well. Add garam masala powder. Mix well and simmer for couple of minutes.

The sarson da saag is ready. Before serving add butter and mix well. (Avoid adding butter to make it vegan). Remove in the serving bowl. Add a little butter and garnish with onion rings. Serve the piping hot sarson da saag with makki ki roti. I have served it with ragi jowar pyaaz phudina roti, sliced onions and mango pickle.
