Spinach Kadaisal

It is the easiest and simplest dish. I have seen my mom use a special wooden churner to mash spinach, once it is cooked. If you have this spinach kadaisal with ghee and hot steamed rice, it would be one of your favorite dishes.

Normally kids don’t like to have these greens. But you try one time by preparing like this, they never say no… The greens have many health benefits. So try to eat greens on your daily base.
