Life 'n' Such

I don’t know if this is the recipe for sarson ka saag, but nonetheless, its an excellent recipe to make mustard greens.

Aunty Sara made this the last time, we had dinner with them. I loved it! This time when I visited her for tea, I asked her for the recipe, and its a very different recipe. Various steps are involved, like, boiling, squeezing, blending, and cooking. But hey, in the end its all worth the effort. (Actually it sounds like a lot, but, I guess, with fewer ingredients, and using a blender, the recipe is always easy)

Ingredients:

mustard greens (1 pack)
1 onion, couple cloves of garlic, few green hot peppers,
salt,
oil for cooking,
red dried chilli peppers,
mustard seeds

Method:

First boil the mustard greens, till they are tender (about 20 mins). When cool, squeeze out the excess water. Put it in the blender, and put the onion, garlics, and hot peppers with a little bit of the boiled water. Blend. Then in oil, heat the oil, and drop the mustard seeds in it. When they pop, add the red dried peppers and quickly add the pureed mustard greens.

That’s it, cook till you see oil floating on the top.

The recipe does not seem as bad.
