u can make the same with methi leaves too..comes out very nicely..but i dont put ginger garlic paste and the spices..my daughter loves it…
Dear kavi,
With ur comments i can understand how difficult to satisfy kids need ,same here with mom of 2 kids.
Even you can cook with pasiparuppu, rice, grinded palak and can make khichidi out of it. Anyhow chips o frencfries both makes good combination as a side dish.
Sure Latha, Will try next time with paneer. My kids doesn’t like potato. But they like to eat chips and french fries….
Actually u can say this spinach pulav. Mine turned very green. I think i added lots of greens. Thanks ma. bye.
Dear kavi,

Thank u Latha, It was really superb. My kids liked it.
