- After 3-5 mins you'll see onions becoming transparent and can smell chilli too. That's when you know your onions are cooked.
- Add chopped tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes.
- Add your fresh washed palak and cook until palak becomes soft. (Do not blench the palak, it removes the nutrients and the color will become dull.)
- After cooking for 5-7 minutes this is how your palak will look. Once it reaches this stage remove from the heat.
