Even though this is a preparation which isn’t very visually enticing, its an all time favourite (non garlicky, though) with us.
With chips? NOw that i should try!

Masiyal is a hot (isn’t as good when cold!) favourite in my house! Those greens are new to me. The appearance reminds me of flat chives we get here when the rains start. I make these with chowli leaves. Picture is great as always!

Hope you are having a great start this year.

I have had amaranth leaves but not water spinach. The green of the soup in the photo is amazing.

Ha ha – the eyes fooled me. When I first spotted the title I thought I was reading Garlicky Mashed Watery Spinach…. I thought, Jai/Bee have totally lost it! Who wants Watery Spinach? Turns out I am the one losing it (which is totally reassuring in its own way – world has not altered on its axis after all).

Had not read the Occupational Hazards post before. If anybody else missed that one on the first go-round, it is well worth the trip back in time.

Healthy New Year, everyone!
