    You can also add tomatoes to this recipe to give it a slightly tangy flavor. Also, instead of boiling the spinach, soak it in hot water for a few minutes and then blend it in a blender. Saute the onion, garlic, ginger paste first, then add tomato puree and saute, add the spices, and finally the spinach to retain its green color.
