palak mushroom or spinach mushroom curry

palak mushroom

palak mushroom – a healthy curry recipe made with spinach and mushrooms. the combination of mushroom and spinach goes very well for us as we are fond of both spinach and mushrooms.

i love to include greens in my diet. fenugreek, spinach and amaranth are my favorite greens to experiment. i try various combination of these greens with other vegetables like aloo methi, aloo palak, palak saagmethi mushroom, red amaranth sambar or even methi chole or palak chole.

palak mushroom is a delicious as well as an easy recipe to make. it is like having palak paneer and we have just replaced paneer with mushroom. this recipe goes well with roti, naan or rice. here i served with some homemade whole wheat naans.
