Lunch box - Idea 1 -Keerai masiyal & Potato fry

I love trying new recipies. But when it comes to everyday lunch, I stick to the traditional items. Here is one such combination. Keerai masiyal and Potato fry.
Keerai Masiyal is the most easiest recipe to make for lunch. Cut and pressure cook. That is all there to it, prettymuch :)

Approximate cooking time(including chopping) - 30 min
















You Need :
Oil - 1 tbsp
Cimun Seeds - 1tbsp
Green chillies - 3
medium sized onion - 1/2
Garlic - 4pods
Tumeric powder - 1 tbsp
Tomato - 1
Spinach leaves - 2 bunches
Thoor dhall - 1/2 cup
Ghee - 1 tbsp(optional)
Salt

Method
Use a pressure cooker.Heat it with a little oil and add the cumin, onions, green chillies, tomato, spinach, garlic, turmeric,salt all in one go. Fry for a few minutes till you see the spinach leave water. Wash and add the thoor dhaal. There must be more spinach than dhall that you can see. Add enough water for the dhall to cook. Pressure cook for 4+ whistles, depending on your dhall's cooking time. Take a mathu and whisk the spinach so that all comes together. It shouldn't take more than 2 minutes. Boil off the excess water. Add ghee(optional).
Tips
Turmeric reduces the iron taste of spinach. So if you are like me, and don't like the iron taste, use more of turmeric.
Use can also use a egg beater if you don't have a mathu.
The onions dont need to be fried in this process.
