Spinach and yogurt dip


About the recipe:
This is my innovative recipe. Cool and absolutely refreshing for a warm summer afternoon. 

Ingredients:

Spinach - 1 bunch
Green chilly  - 2 nos. 
Onion - 1 medium
Yogurt - 2 tablespoons


Seasoning:
Cumin seeds - 1 spoon
Mustard seeds - 1 spoon
Oil - 1 spoon
Garlic - 2 pods
Asafoetida - a pinch
Salt to taste


How to:
Blanch the spinach for just about 3 minutes. Overdoing will rob it of its valuable nutrients and give you a soggy mess in the name of Spinach. Heat oil in a pan, add the cumin and mustard seeds. Allow them to splutter and add the onions, asafoetida, toss in the garlic and remove from heat. Grind this mixture along with the spinach, yogurt to a rich creamy consistency like the one showed in the picture blow. Add some salt to taste. 
Goes well with fresh cut veggies, nachos, chips, french fries or just mix it with rice!
