Yummy Lasooni palak! Nice clicks!
THank you 🙂
love how garlicky this sounds! i normally don’t puree my spinach (in fact, i can’t remember if i ever have!), so this sounds like a good way to break out of my plain sauteed spinach rut (:
try the pureed spinach once. I love the puree version more because of the silky smooth texture. I am sure you will like it too:)
