PALAK MUSHROOM


PALAK  MUSHROOM

This is a delicious combination of mushrooms with palak. Palak or spinach is a very well known greens that grows almost everywhere & well known to everyone. Goes so well with salads, gravy's dals appetizers etc.. It is so versatile & so good for you. I never miss any opportunity to cook with them & try to create new combinations also.

This combo worked out so well. Mushrooms are my another favorites that are again versatile & add meatiness to anything you eat without meat.
 


RECIPE:

INGRIDIENTS:

400 gms of mushroom
4-5 Cups of Palak / Spinach
1 small onion
1 medium tomato
1 Tsp coriander powder
1 Tsp Cumin
1 Bay leaf
2 Green chilies
1Tbs Ginger garlic paste
1Tsp Red chili powder
1/2 Tsp Garam masala
4 Tbs Oil
Salt to taste

METHOD:

1. Wash & drain the spinach & keep it in a pan with stove on & let it wilt a bit. Do not over wilt your greens. Reserve the water it is wilted inn for later use. Then switch off & let it cool. pulse the spinach in the grinder 2 to 3 times & keep it a side.


 2. Switch on the stove with a pan & put oil in it. Add bay leaf & green chili. Then add onions & sauté for a bit.

 
 3. Add ginger garlic paste & stir then add coriander powder again stir for a min.


4. Now add tomatoes & cook for 4 min with lid on.


5. Now add the mushrooms stir well & let it cook for 5 min without the lid. Mushroom have lots of moisture in them so with lid onn it leaves lots of liquid & the gravy can be very runny. Add chili & cumin powder.


 
6. After the mushroom is cooked add the spinach with very little water that is left over after wilting it. Stir & add salt & garam masala
 
 
 
7. Cook for 2 min & switch off. This is served with chapatis or any kind of bread. Really delicious & full of health.
