      Tried this last night, it was delicious. Had to make my own panch phoron, but it is the mango powder which really make the dish for me. Thank you! The tip of letting the spinach sit for 3 minutes on top was perfect.

      will try it, with your suggested spices. Normally spinach dishes come out kind of bland, so I am hoping that your ideas work. Can we use frozen spinach? - it's much easier to get.
      BTW, a couple of observations:
      I always keep the skin, especially with red potatoes. It's very thin, and has a lot of nutrients.
      I read in a reputable newspaper that if you use black pepper in conjunction with turmeric, the latter's inflammation fighting properties are enhanced quite a lot; even a small amount of black pepper is enough. I didn't really believe this, but then I saw turmeric supplements at the pharmacy and that too had black pepper in it.

    in case you lack panch phoron (like I do), it is easy to make:
    1 tablespoon cumin seeds (jeera)
    1 tablespoon brown mustard seeds (can make do with black, though maybe a smidge less as black is stronger than brown)
    1 tablespoon fennel seeds
    1 tablespoon nigella seeds (also called black cumin or kalonji)
    1½ teaspoons fenugreek (methi) seeds (read carefully; this one is tsp not tbsp--don't overdo it)

      Black cumin also refers to a different spice, that is a type of cumin but is completely different to nigella. It is true that nigella is sometimes called black cumin, so you need to make sure it is actually nigella. In the UK I have only ever seen nigella called either nigella or kalonji.

    So this is what I am making today as I had a big load of large spinach leaves to use up. Also I realised when I watched this and your other video on this recipe from three years ago I don’t have your ‘30 minute’ book 🫢 so I’m off to rectify that and place an order to add it to my collection. I noticed that in one recipe video you used Garam Masala and in the other you used Amchur powder… what’s the difference in using one over the other i wonder. I used the latter as i commonly use GM in my dishes - I’m excited to eat it later. Thanks again for yet another great nutritious recipe 🥰

    just yesterday I made the spiced layered flatbreads, tomato tamarind chutney (try to always have it in the fridge - it also pairs lovely with some aged cheese - as a Swiss, I think this is more my terrain 😂 but taste is still so subjective☺️) cucumber raita & chicken korma all out of your 30 min book! Also made the brown lentil dal with jaggery from a video of yours and thanks to practicing & learning from you, I combined several recipes to make a vindaloo as well ☺️
    I’m sure there are better pairings but I’m still eager to learn! However we had a great night, they were delighted with the food and I guess they‘ve (finally) ordered some of your books now 😁
    Thank you once more for all of your work and sharing so many gorgeous recipes with the world! ❤

    oh, you know those thinly-thin pastries, that you have to cover up with moist towel so they don't crackle up? filo you called them. well, you can use chopped spinach and white cheese, as a filling for those. it's customary in Serbia to make those, not with spinach per se, but with something we call zelje (I'm not even going to attempt to teach you how to pronounce that, lj is actually one letter, but in latin alphabet it looks like two and I can't think of single non slavic word that uses the same sound, if there is, it'd have to be french. but, it's a first letter in ljubav - love, and ljudi - people, and it's also in želje - wishes, so rare, but important letter)
    anyway, zelje is apparently a local thing, and being a leafy green, I doubt it's exported far and wide, so doubtful you can find it anywhere away from balkans. some translate it as cabbage, but, it neither looks anything like cabbage (altho, kale, cauliflower, brusel sprouts also none look like cabbage, but they're all same exact species) nor is it the close relative to cabbages, it's latin name is Rumex patientia - it's definitely much milder tasting than spinach, so some don't like to sub for spinach, but you never had zelje, so you might like it. you can also sub for chard, or maybe even kale or chinese kale) we don't quite have leafy kale here, we use that word to refer to savoy cabbage - I don't know how certain words got so messed up in Serbian, like, we call crapes pancakes. go figure. anyway, sorry for rumbling - I never had leafy kale or chinese kale, but they may be a decent sub for zelje
    we call that pastry type a pie, pita, and this specific pie, is called zeljanica, it's the yummiest thing
    bottom line: you don't have to overextend to spend spinach next time, you can just make a pie with it, and see if you like it
    I really do let my adhd shine through when I get excited, all I meant to say was to make a pie with extra spinach
