Palak Raita



Ingredients:

  • Spinach - 2 cups
  • Curd - 1 cup
  • Mustard Seeds - 1/2 tsp
  • Cumin Seeds - 1/2 tsp
  • Red Chili Powder - to taste
  • Roasted Cumin Powder - to sprinkle
  • Salt - to taste
  • Oil - 1 tsp
Directions
  • Beat the curd and keep aside.
  • Wash spinach and discard the stems.
  • Steam on low heat until tender.
  • Drain and chop very finely or grind roughly. Do not throw the drained water. I like to use that water to knead the dough for roti.
  • In a small pan, heat oil and splutter mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Let it cool down a bit. Pour it in the beaten curd.
  • Add chopped or ground spinach and mix well.
  • Add salt, red chili powder and roasted cumin powder.
  • Serve chilled or at room temperature with any paratha.
