#healthylunch - This is a healthy stir fry made with kulfa saag (purslane leaves) and some paneer. Kulfa is almost similar to methi (fenugreek leaves) and is slightly tangy in taste. It is a flavorful side dish that can be prepared in a jiffy. I added some pani puri masala to the end product but you can skip it if you want. Best enjoyed with either rice or chapatis for a simple lunch.
You can also substitute paneer with potatoes, matar or chole for some variation. They turn out very yummy as these healthy greens goes well with any veggies of your choice. So you will have something new for your family every day.
