- 1
Wash your palak in runner water and strain the excess water. Cut tomatoes and onions medium sized. Keep ready all the spices.
- 2
In a kadhai, heat oil on medium flame, add cumin seeds and let them crackle. Add garlic, ginger and saute.

Add chopped onions and saute for 2 mins. Do not over cook.
- 4
Add green chillies, you can cut them and add. Saute for 2-3 mins, you'll sleep the aroma of chillies and onion.

- 6
Add chopped tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes.
- 7
Add your fresh washed palak and cook until palak becomes soft. (Do not blench the palak, it removes the nutrients and the color will become dull.)
- 8
After cooking for 5-7 minutes this is how your palak will look. Once it reaches this stage remove from the heat.
- 9
Take it out from the pan in a large plate and let it cool.

Add blended palak puree and cook for 3-4 minutes. And turn off the flame. Let it cool for a while.
