Description
Spinach extends its popularity to the Indian continent with great zest. Spinach is a seasonal vegetable and so home cooks try to incorporate it daily in their meal plans as it is available for only a few months out of a year. There are hundreds of recipes that use spinach generously. In this class we will learn three popular dishes with spinach or Palak as it is known in India. We will make Palak-Paneer, a very famous north Indian curry with onions, pungent spices and paneer. We will also make Palak Pulao of Basmati rice with spinach, tomatoes, brown sugar and garam masala with peanuts and cashews. Finally, we will make spinach pancakes with chickpea flour, onions, tomatoes, chilies, and ginger. Let’s go green!
