Spread the love

Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 800 g spinach, fresh or
  • 600 g leaf spinach, frozen
  • 2 m.-sized onion(s)
  • Ginger, fresh, approx. 3 cm
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 4 tbsp Clarified butter or ghee
  • ¼ tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin, ground
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp coriander, ground
  • 125 g cream
  • Salt

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes

Clean and wash the spinach, let it drain; or let it thaw and squeeze it dry. Peel the onions and slice them into thin rings. Peel the ginger and grate it finely. Peel the garlic and press it through a press with the ginger. Heat the ghee in a pan. Add the onions and fry over medium heat until dark brown. Add the ginger and garlic and fry for about 1/2 minute. Add the chili powder, cumin, turmeric, and coriander and toast over high heat for about 1 minute. Add the spinach in portions. Season well with salt. Cover and simmer over medium heat for about 15 minutes. Finally, carefully stir in the cream. Tip: Tastes great with tagliatelle. It’s not quite as Indian then, but it’s still good. Variation: Instead of 800g spinach, you can also use 400g spinach and 400g kale. The preparation is the same.
