30-Minute Aloo Palak (Spinach and Potato Curry)

Ughhhh I don’t know about this one. The base, ingredients, and simplicity level was good, but it had no flavor and took WAYA LONGER THAN 30 minutes. If making again, the spices need to be at Least doubled, if not more. Do not overcook potatoes, no more than 12 minutes cooking.

Didn't end up being 30 minutes lol but it was pretty tasty! Definitely something I and my boyfriend had never tried. Great with lemon and a lil extra salt to finish.

It wasn't bad, just needed a lot of salt and a lot more cumin. If using rice, keep the proportion around 1:1 to stop it being bland

This recipe is good but could definitely use some tweaking with the proportions. You need just 1/2 a potato otherwise it overpowers the spinach, which should be the main feature. I’d also cut it into quarter circles instead of squares. Also, I think you only need 1/2 a white onion…while the onion and tomato cook down, even a whole onion that’s just medium sized is too much for just a lb of spinach. I might even try blending or at least processing the tomato and onion together next time instead of simply dicing it by hand as it’s again, not the main event of this dish. I’d consider trying to make this with dried red chilis and mustard seeds next time. I didn’t use green chilis here because we didn’t have them, but I did use cumin seeds and not sure if they added much to the dish. Don’t skimp on the salt and make sure to cook the spinach thoroughly, even if you’ve already partly cooked it by defrosting in the microwave, as that raw taste really needs to get out :)

This was good, but I added rice also which made it better. I layered rice on my plate then topped it with the spinach and potatoes.
