This delicate & tender crisp green leafy vegetable is a powerhouse of nutrition with nature’s best vitamins and antioxidants. It is very beneficial to people of all age groups due to their amazing health benefits. The best way to cook spinach is to just steam or saute them for a short while and avoid prolonged cooking. However eating raw or under cooked spinach should be avoided by people with thyroid disorders or people trying to avoid oxalic acid in their diet. In this post I have complied all the palak recipes that I have shared earlier. Apart from making these dishes I also add spinach to vegetable juices, smoothies, soups, vegetable stir fry dishes, cutlets & mix vegetable paratha or roti. Just an handful of palak to vegetable juice adds a good nutrition.
