Alu Palak (Potato with Spinach)

Tried out this recipe today... Came out pretty well... For the record...

3 medium size potatoes - peeled, cut into 3/4 inch pieces
1 medium onion chopped
1 tsp chilli powder (adjust)
1 tsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp cumin seeds
4-5 cubes of frozen spinach (you can add more)
salt to taste

Method:
  1. Heat some oil in a pan and add the cumin seeds.
  2. Once they start spluttering, add the onion and fry it till translucent.
  3. Now add all the dry spices and salt and fry for 2 mins (take care the spices don't burn).
  4. Add some water and put the potatoes and let cook for 10 mins (on sim) stirring frequently and adding water if necessary.
  5. Now add the spinach and cover and cook till the potatoes are done (again adding water when necessary).
  6. Mix well and serve with roti or rice.
Its quiet simple and gets done quiet fast. Its healthy at the same time.
