Saag



Ingredients:
1lb. spinach
1lb. mustard greens
1lb. turnip greens
1lb. broccoli or cauliflower
1/2 cup kusoori methi (dried fenugreek leaves) - optional
1 1/2 tsp. salt 
5-10 green chillies (depending on how spicy you want it)
1 big onion
3 serving spoons of corn flour
Butter - optional 

Directions
Wash and roughly chop the greens. If you want to use methi, then soak the methi in water and drain several times to makes sure the dirt is out. Put the greens (except the methi), salt, green chillies, and 2-3 cups of water in a pot and cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Add methi 30 minutes into cooking the greens. Then add the corn meal and cook ~10 minutes. 

Let cool a bit, then blend the saag with an immersion blender. 

Next chop onion into thin slices and lightly fry them until they are a translucent pink color. Add the fried onions to the saag and cook 5-10 minutes. 

Top with butter or margarine or nothing.
