My dear friend Sapna had fever yesterday..so thought of making simple and healthy lunch for herMade this corn palak with minimum spices. love such recipes with few ingredients. here goes the recipe...

Ingredients:
Spinach - 1 bunch washed
Frozen corn - 2 cups

Red Chili Flakes - 1 tbsp
Cumin Seeds - 1/2 tbsp
Turmeric Powder - 1/4tspn
Hing Powder - a pinch full
Garam Masala Powder - 1/2 tbsp
Oil - 1tbspn
Salt to taste

Directions:
  • Use a wide pan on medium heat with oil in it...
  • Once the oil is hot add cumin seeds, when they sizzle add the crushed garlic and stir till the raw smell is gone...garlic should be tender not brown
  • Now add chopped onions and hing powder...saute till onions and translucent
  • Add red chili flakes, turmeric and give quick stir. 
  • Now add corn, mix well and cover the pan with lid for 2 min
