Saak Bhaja
Ingredients
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1/4 tsp five spice powder
2 cup onion, thinly sliced
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/4 tsp salt
3 cup chard, slivered
Preparation
Heat oil in pan over medium low heat & add five spice powder. Fry for
a few seconds. Add onion & fry until it is translucent, 2 or 3
minutes. Stir constantly. Add the turmeric & salt & stir briefly.
Add the chard. Reduce heat to very low, cover & cook just until the
chard is green & limp. But, do not cook so much that it loses its
colour. Cook for no more than 5 or 10 minutes. Remove from heat &
serve at once.
This dish goes well with rice & mung beans.
