Recipe Summary Aloo Palak
This is one of my favorite dry sabjis. If you like Aloo Methi, then you'll love this dish, too. Goes great with parathas or with some plain rice and ghee.Ingredients | Aloo Matar Dry Recipe2 tablespoons peanut oil1 teaspoon cumin seeds1 teaspoon mustard seeds2 dried red chile peppers, cut in half6 fresh curry leaves½ teaspoon ground turmeric1 pinch asafoetida powder2 cups cubed potatoessalt to taste2 tablespoons water1 tablespoon peanut oil6 cups chopped fresh spinachsalt to taste½ teaspoon ground red pepper½ teaspoon ground cuminDirectionsHeat 2 tablespoons peanut oil in a skillet; fry the cumin seeds, mustard seeds, and red chile peppers in the hot oil until the seeds begin to splutter, 2 to 3 minutes.
