Saag

Adapted from Vegan Fire & Spice by Robin Robertson.
  • 1 pound fresh spinach (good frozen works if you cook it a bit before adding)
  • 2 Tbs canola oil
  • 1 or more garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger root, finely chopped
  • 2 tsp curry powder or garam masala (best if you make your own curry or masala)
  • 1/2 tsp hot pepper powder, cayenne or other
  • 1/2 cup or more tomatoes, roughly chopped
  • Salt as desired
Heat oil to medium highish heat in heavy pan.
Add garlic, ginger, curry powder and hot pepper powder, mixing with the oil.
Cook stirring for about 1 minute or until fragrant.
Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to low medium, add the spinach and cook to desired consistency -- can be done in 10 minutes and can continue cooking for 30 minutes or more.
Add salt to your liking.
