By far, this is my most preferred way of including spinach in our meals. The recipe by itself is so simple, wholesome, healthy and low fat. Just what this blog is all about!
Serves 6
Ingredients :
500 gm Spinach leaves, picked, washed and roughly chopped.
1/2 cup water (less may be needed, since they are washed and need very little water to cook)
1 1/2 cup skim milk
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
crumbled cottage cheese/ grated processes cheese/ butter to garnish
Method:
1. Put the freshly washed spinach leaves along with water in a large saucepan with fitted lid (or pressure cooker), and cook for 10 minutes on low heat after first boil. You may just need one whistle in pressure cooker to wilt them.
2. Cool and blend in a blend to a fine smooth paste.
3. Return to heat, adding milk, salt and pepper. Heat thoroughly.
(note: depending on your preference, you may want to adjust the quantity of milk used)
4. Ladle the soup into bowls. Serve immediately garnished with a tablespoon of freshly crumbled cottage cheese/some slivers of grated cheese, or a dollop of cream/butter, as per your choice. You can serve this soup with soup sticks/crusty garlic bread.
