Palak Ki Anokhi Sabji

Ever since I started cooking I have tried many recipes of traditional spinach dishes. I wanted to make a spinach recipe which is offbeat from the traditional ones. The use of milk powder in my recipe gives a bit of sweet taste which goes well with spinach and binds the ingredients. The garlic/chili puree provides the heat. The fried cashews provide additional flavor and crunch.

This dish can be eaten with chapati or paratha.
