Spinach curry

Spinach curry is one of my favorite side dishes.  This recipe is simple enough that you can make it frequently,  It is a healthy side dish and the combination of spinach and moong dhal tastes good.  Spinach curry goes well with rice and chapathis.

Ingredients

Chopped Spinach - 4 cups
Onion - 1 medium
Green chillies - 3-4
Garlic - 3-4 pods
Curry leaves
Moong dhal - 1/2 cup
Mustard - 1/2 tsp
Urad dhal - 1/2 tsp
Salt

Method

Cook the Moong dhal in water with the garlic pods. 

Heat oil in a pan and add some mustard seeds and Urad dhal.  When the mustard seeds splutter, add onion, green chillies and curry leaves and fry till the onion becomes golden brown.

Add the spinach and salt and mix them well. Cover the pan with the lid and cook the spinach. When the spinach is cooked, add the cooked moong dal to the above mixture and combine well.

Keep on stirring till you get the desired consistency.
