Cooking Instructions
- 1
Separate the leaves from stalk. Give it a good wash. Wash and cook Dal with turmeric. You can slow cook or pressure cook, choice is yours. I always prefer slow cooked. Once the Dal is cooked and mushy, blend it with the traditional wooden blender and add the salt and the Kulfa leaves. Let it cook for about 10-15 minutes or so till the raw flavour of Kulfa goes off. Check consistency of the dal. Adjust as per your preference.

Once Dal is ready, heat mustard oil in a pan, add dry chilli, jeera and crushed garlic and when the garlic browns a bit, add it to the Dal and cover the Dal pot to trap the aroma of tempering.

Sarson Da Saag Sarson Da Saag
#greenveg - Here comes the winter special - the delicious 'Sarson Ka Saag' or Mustard Greens, which is a very popular and a typical Punjabi dish. It is relished with a dollop of butter, some onions and with Makki Ki Roti. This is a simple, healthy and a wholesome meal. I have not followed the traditional method. This recipe is entirely my version where I have added coriander & mint leaves instead of the bathua and spinach that usually goes into making it.

'Saag Paneer' Indian Spinach Curry 'Saag Paneer' Indian Spinach Curry
This is one of my favorite curries. A person can consume about 250 g of spinach with it, and the paneer that goes inside is yummy as well. A curry substituted with chicken is called "saag chicken," and the version with potatoes is called "saag aloo."Back in India, sometimes we substitute paneer with chicken or potatoes when making this spinach curry. If using chicken or potatoes, please add them to the curry after making sure they are cooked through. Recipe by Plabar
