2) Add onion and 2-3 pinches salt. Let onion cook nicely.
3) Add spinach and cook without covering the pan. Saute until spinach reduces. Adjust the salt.

  1. We make this with crushed roasted peanut powder in place of urad dal, and some garlic and red chilles in the tadka. Tastes wonderful.

  2. I'm so glad I found your blog. I live in the northwest of the US and although there are a handful of Indian groceries I can't always find everything.

    When you specify hing, do you mean the powdered kind or the block. I can only find the powdered - is there a conversion I can use? Thanks!

  3. Hello Larry

    Thank you for writing to me.
    In Indian cooking, we usually use hing powder. If you have a block of hing, then grind it and make a fine powder.
