I wanted us to get some greens in but was short on time. That’s when I thought of making Palak Chicken Curry. Basically, its just spinach puree as a major part of the gravy. Easy, healthy, and yumm.
Ingredients:
Puree:
Palak (Spinach) – 2 cups
Green chillies – 4
Curry leaves – a handful
Yogurt – 3-4 tbsp
Water – as needed
———————————–
Chicken: 2 lbs
Potatoes – 2 (cut in cubes)
Oil – 2 tbsp
Onion – 1 (chopped)
Cumin – 1 tbsp
Ginger garlic paste – 1 tbsp
Turmeric – 1/2 tsp
Red chilli powder – 3 tsp
Coriander powder – 4 tsp
Lemon juice/conc. – 1 tbsp
Salt – as per taste
Step 1: Heat some oil in a pan and add in cumin seeds and onions. Saute until slightly brown.
Step 2: Add in the potatoes, chicken, ginger-garlic, spices, and the puree. Mix well.
Step 3: Cover & cook for 15-20 mins or until done. Adjust salt as per taste. Add in some lemon juice for tanginess.
Enjoy with warm rice/roti and a spoonful of ghee! 🙂
