Hey Keller Family! I created this blog for all of us to add all of our yummy recipes, and have a central location for them. I know I am always calling back and forth to get a recipe because I lose the paper I've written it on. So here's my solution! A printed recipe book would be outdated quickly as many of us love to find new recipes to try. Be sure to label what your recipe is (main dish, dessert, side, etc) so it will be easier for others to find. So start adding recipes!

1/2 tsp turmeric
2 large cardamom pods (1/3 tsp)
2 cloves (1/4 tsp)
7 tbsp vegetable oil

  • Fry the chicken lightly in 4 tablespoon of oil for 3-4 minutes until lightly browned and set aside.
  • Put the spinach into a deep pan; add 1/4 cup water. Bring to boil and remove from heat. When cool, grind in blender and set aside.
  • Heat the remaining oil and add ginger, garlic and onions; sauté until lightly brown. Add tomatoes, salt, cayenne, coriander powder, turmeric, cloves, and cardamom.
  • Sprinkle with one tablespoon water. Cook for 10 minutes over low heat. Add chicken and milk. Simmer until the chicken is tender.
  • Add spinach and garam masala. Cook until spinach starts sticking to pan. Remove from heat. Add butter to chicken saag and cover until ready to serve.
