Though I am not so fond of saags, I love Bahal saag and can have it anytime, any day and anywhere. My mamunani (maternal grandmaa) used to prepare it for me specially when we used to spend the summer vacation at their place.
Ingredients :
Bahal saag - 500 gms
Oil - 1 tbsp
Phul badi - 1 tbsp (fried)
Mustard seeds - ½ tsp
Dried red chilli - 1-2
Onion (chopped) - ½
Main (buttermilk) - 2 cups (small)
Salt - as per taste
Milk - ¼ cup
Chuna gunda (Rice powder) - 2 tsp
Method :
Clean the saag properly. Chop it fine. Heat oil in a pan. Add mustard seeds. When they start sizzling, add the dried red chilli and sauté for a second. Add onion and sauté till they turn light pink. Add main and let it boil properly. Add saag to it. After 2 minutes add salt and mix well. Cook again till the main evaporates. Mix chuna gunda to the milk properly and add it to the saag. When the saag gets dry, take it off fire and add fried phul badi before serving.
PN : Bahal saag is mostly available in summer. The young leaves are plucked to prepare this delicious saag.
