Saag Indian Spinach

Features:
    Cuisine:

    An Indian spinach dish similar to that served in Indian restaurants. This is great as a main course or served as part of a larger meal. Serve with basmati rice and a little raita if you like. The dish is also great with the addition of paneer cubes or boiled potatoes - though I love it plain.

    Saag (Indian Spinach),An Indian spinach dish similar to that served in Indian restaurants. This is great as a main course or served as part of a larger meal. Serve with basmati rice and a little raita if you like. The dish is also great with the addition of paneer cubes or boiled potatoes – though I love it plain.,I didn’t have any coriander or curry powder, but used some fresh chilli and it still tasted amazing, can’t wait to try again with all the ingredients!

    Steps

    1
    Done

    In a Large Saucepan, Saute Onion in Oil on Medium High Along With Ginger and Garam Masala Until Onions Are Translucent and Begin to Pick Up Some Color.

    2
    Done

    Add Minced Garlic to Pan, and Cook Briefly to Soften. Do not Allow the Garlic to Burn - Lower Heat If Necessary.

    3
    Done

    Add Tomatoes and Cook For 2-3 Minutes. Incidentally, You Can Add a Little More or Less Tomato Depending on What You Have Available, Slight Differences in Quantity Will not Be Noticeable.

    4
    Done

    Stir in Yogurt. Do not Worry If the Yogurt Separates.

    5
    Done

    Add Curry Powder, Coriander, Cumin, Sugar, and Salt.

    6
    Done

    Add Bag of Frozen Spinach and Mix Well to Combine. There Is No Need to Defrost First If You Use a the Bagged Spinach. If You Are Using the Frozen Block, I Would Advise Defrosting First. You Can Also Use the Equivalent of Fresh Spinach.

    7
    Done

    Add About a Cup of Water to the Pot and Cover. Simmer on Medium For Approximately 30 Minutes. Spinach Is Done When the Color Has Changed from the Initial Bright Green to a Much Less Vibrant Green (almost Brownish). If You Crank Up the Heat, It Is Possible to Cook This a Little Faster, but You Have to Pay Attention to the Moisture Level. You May Have to Add More Water Throughout the Cooking Process If It Cooks Off.

    8
    Done

    Once the Spinach Is Fully Cooked, Remove the Lid and Cook Off Any Remaining Liquid. the Spinach Should Be Moist, but There Should not Be Much Liquid Free in the Bottom of the Pan.

    9
    Done

    Remove Pan from Heat.

    10
    Done

    Using an Immersion Blender, Blender, or Food Processor, Puree the Spinach. Leave It as Chunky as You Like. You Can Also Choose to Puree Only Half of the Mixture If You Like Bigger Pieces of Spinach.
