Spinach is a good source of of Dietary Fiber, Protein, all vital Vitamins, Thiamine, Folate, Calcium,Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Copper and Manganese, Niacin and Zinc. But it is rich high in Sodium.

I prepared this gravy using electric rice cooker. It can also be done, using normal pressure cooker. About 1 whistle on high flame is required.

Garlic pods - 10
Ginger-garlic paste - 2 tsp

Turmeric Powder - 1/4 tsp

Cauliflower - 1/2 flower
Oil for deep frying cauliflower

For seasoning:-

Cumin seeds - 1 tsp

Fennel seeds - 1 tsp

Black pepper - 6 nos.

Dry red chilly - 2

Oil  - 2 tsp

METHOD:-

 Heat oil in the electric rice cooker, and add cumin seeds, fennel seeds, dry red chilly, black pepper and saute for 30 secs. 

Add roughly chopped onions, garlic pods, ginger-garlic paste, salt and saute till the raw smell goes off. Add tomatoes, all powders together and mix well. 

When the water content oozes from the tomatoes, add spinach and mix well. Sprinkle little water about 2 tsp, and cover with lid for 10 mins. Stir occasionally.

When the spinach is completely  cooked, allow it to cool and grind it ( not a fine paste).
