1 pinch – Asafoetida Preparation method:
Wash spinach thoroughly and chop them finely, set aside.
Heat oil in a pan, season with items given in the list for seasoning. Add chopped garlic and onion, saute until translucent.
Now add chopped spinach along with turmeric powder and required salt, saute for 5 to 6 mins or until spinach is well cooked.
Finally sprinkle roasted pottukadalai powder and mix well, switch off the stove. Spinach stir fry is ready and serve hot with rice. Notes:
For pottukadalai powder, dry roast dhalia / pottukadalai until slightly golden brown color and crush it to a coarse powder. Adding roasted pottukadalai powder helps to reduce moisture in the spinach.
