Palak Soup

Last month my niece Aadyaa was here. She loves Palak soup like anything. As we all know Palak (spinach) is an iron rich vegetable. So I prepared this soup for her…….. And she just loved it and was asking more ('ajun' in Marathi) in her bowl…… So a healthy soup for the rainy season.



Ingredients

Palak (spinach) - 1 bunch
Milk - 1,1/2 cup
Onion - 1 small
Garlic - 4-5 cloves
Ginger - 1 inch
Green chili - 1 (optional)
Black pepper powder - 1/4 tea spoon
Corn flour - 1 teaspoon
Sugar - 1 teaspoon
Butter - 1 teaspoon
Salt to taste


Procedure

Wash the spinach neatly. Now cook spinach, 1/2 cup milk, onion, chili, garlic and ginger in pressure cooker for 2-3 whistles. Let it get cool. Now make a thin paste in the mixer. Sieve it with 1 cup of milk added into it. Add sugar, salt and butter and boil it for a minute. Now make a thin paste of corn flour and pour it in the soup and boil it for 30 seconds. Sprinkle some black pepper powder. Garma garam Palak soup is ready.

I would like to send this recipe to Pavani's Cooking For Kids-Leafy Greens started by Sharmi's original CKF announcement.
And
Soumya's SWC- Cooking with greens event
