Jul 27, 2025 11:20 PM

  Any soft green, such as chard leaves, may be substituted for the spinach here.

  

Ingredients

serves 4

  2 tablespoons olive or canola oil

  1/4 teaspoon whole brown or yellow mustard seeds

  1/2 clove garlic, sliced

  5–6 ounces fresh spinach leaves, chopped

  Salt

  1 cup plain yogurt

  1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste

  

Step 1

Pour the oil into a small frying pan and set over medium-high heat. When hot, put in the mustard seeds. As soon as they start to pop, a matter of seconds, put in the garlic. Cook and stir for a few seconds. Add the spinach and stir for about 5 minutes or until the spinach is just cooked through. Add about 1/4 teaspoon salt and mix it in.

  

Step 2

Put the yogurt in a bowl. Whisk lightly with a fork until creamy. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and the cayenne. Stir to mix.

  

Step 3

Just before eating, fold the entire contents of the frying pan into the yogurt.
