How to make it
- Acutally i dont prefer to cook spinach or dill it looses its vitamins but this is tradional food n its light n easy to digest so i like it .... :P
- In a cook pot add olive oil donot heat alot just add cummin seed n stir in for 2 sec then add finely chopped onions saute it for another 2 mins then add spinach ...cook for another 3 min in a while spinach will reduce into half just stir slowly upside down.... then add dill mix well ... a lovely aroma will start rising .... add rice salt n pepper stir well add water
- lower the flame n cover to simmer it ... when rice cooked well just add lemon juice and mix it .....
- Ready to serve with feta cheese ...
- Tip : In this recipe u can just add one small finely chopped tomatoes... even spare mint or mint can be added for aroma .... some people use spring onion instead of onion but i prefer this way to cook
- Adding lemon at the end keeps the tangy flavour of the juice or else it looses the flavour if add while cooking
- i know its cooked in olive oil which i dont prefer but this is the recipe i have... :-)
