Keerai Masiyal | Spinach Palak Sauce

March 27, 2012 By Sangeetha Priya 3 Comments

Apart from few dhal recipes, Keerai Masiyal is my daughter’s favorite. She is a picky eater, hardly take one hour or more than that to finish her lunch. But when i mix this masiyal with white rice and ghee, she finish it off in 15 minutes. So this is a weekly routine recipe, which i prepare at least once or twice a week.

Ingredients

Spinach/Palak/Siru Keerai – 1 (Medium bunch)
Green Chillis – 2 (Small)
Cumin seeds – 1tsp
Shallot – 4 Number or Onion – 1/2 (Medium)
Garlic – 5 Numbers

Method

  • Clean the green leaves. In the pressure cooker add onion(cut in to big slices),whole Garlic, Green chillis, CuminΒ and green leaves.

  • Pressure cook for 1 or 2 whistles(Don’t add water).
  • Grind with salt in mixie.
  • Add butter or milk to the masiyal (optional)
  • Also temper mustard and urad dhal with hot oil, add to the masiyal (optional).
  • Serve with rice and ghee.

Note:

  • I have tried Arai Keerai/Mulai keerai(Thotakura) when i was in chennai.Β Β If other type of keerai has large stems use only the leaves to prepare this dish.
