Quite a few dishes can be made with this red spinach - sambar, kootu, stir fry, chutney and can even be included in rotis (spinach rotis or keerai chapati).
Red spinach chutney is a yummy and healthy side dish and goes very well with plain hot rice, dosa and even rotis.
Ingredients:
- Red Spinach/Amaranth - 1 bunch
- Red chillies - 3 or 4 (according to taste)
- Tamarind - a small piece
- Coriander powder - 1/2 tsp
- Turmeric - 1/4 tsp
- Salt - As per taste
- Oil - 2 tbl spn
- Separate the leaves only and wash them. Fry these leaves in a tsp of oil and keep aside.
- Fry red chillies also and keep aside.
- Grind the leaves and chillies along with all the other ingredients. Do not add water.
- Heat the remaining oil in a kadai and add mustard. Once the mustard splutters add the ground paste and fry for a few minutes and remove from fire.
- This tastes good with plain hot rice and dosa and stays good for a week.
