Take the fine chopped greens in a pan along with chillies and in medium flame cook till the palak leaves wilt. Then put them in a mixer and grind to puree.
Meanwhile peel off the onion and chop it in to fine cubes. Following this, chop tomato, ginger and garlic cloves also finely. Next, heat a pan with oil, cumin seeds and curry leaves. Saute till the cumin sizzle and splutter.
Next add onion and continue sauteing till they turn translucent. Then include chopped ginger and garlic too.
After sauteing for few minutes, add chopped tomato and cook till they turn mushy. Now it's time to add palak puree. Cook this mixture till raw smell of spinach leaves subside.
Finally mash the cooked lentils and pour it over palak mixture. Season it with salt to taste and cook for few more minutes.
Very healthy and protein packed dal palak is ready to serve with chapati.
