• Gram flour – 1 bowl

• Ginger and green chilli paste – 1 teaspoon
• Salt – as per taste
• For tempering: A little oil, mustard seeds, sesame seeds, curry leaves and asafoetida.
• For decoration: Grated fresh coconut and coriander leaves.

Method of preparation (Step-by-Step):

1. First make spinach puree:
Wash the spinach leaves thoroughly and put them in boiling water for 2 minutes (this is called blanching). After this, put it in cold water and grind it in a mixer to make a smooth paste (pure).

2. Prepare the batter:
Now take gram flour in a big vessel. Add spinach puree, curd (or buttermilk), ginger-chilli paste and salt to it. Now add some water as per requirement and make a thin batter. Keep in mind that there should not be a single lump of gram flour in it. Beat it well.

3. Cooking step (most important):
Now take a wok or non-stick pan and pour this solution into it. Keep the gas on medium flame and keep stirring continuouslyThis step is very important, if you skip stirring it will stick, Gradually this solution will start thickening, When it becomes like halwa and starts leaving the pan, then understand that it is ready,

4. Spread on the plate:
Now take a large steel plate (or clean kitchen platform). Apply some oil on the backside of the plate. Now pour the hot prepared mixture on the plate and spread it very thinly with a flat spoon or spatula. Leave it for 5-10 minutes to cool.

5. Cutting and Rolling:
When it sets, cut it into long strips with a knife. Now start rolling it slowly from one edge. Your beautiful green khandvi is ready!

6. Real Fun: Tadka:
Heat oil in a small pan. Add mustard seeds, asafoetida, sesame seeds and curry leaves. When the mustard seeds start crackling, pour this tempering over the Khandvi. Sprinkle grated coconut and green coriander on top.
