Ingredients Serving: 10

Red Sorrel Leaves or Ambaade Ki Bhaaji 8 bunches
Kashmiri red Chilli powder 2 tsp
Salt to taste
Turmeric powder 1 tsp
Oil 1/4 cup
curry leaves 10
Ripe Tomatoes medium ones 2
cumin seeds 1 tbsp
Dry red chillies 3-4
Ginger garlic paste 1 tbsp
Green chillies whole 3 (optional)

Instructions

Pluck only the leaves from the bunches and rinse thoroughly in enough water to get rid of dirt and sand. When you pluck leaves from the bunches, you will be left with only three fourths of it because one fourth will be stale and rotten leaves. That is why I have mentioned about 8 bunches. You can store this for a month in the refrigerator and relish it's awesome taste.
Heat oil and add Cumin seeds and Curry leaves. Fry for a minute and then add Dry red chillies and Ginger garlic paste.
Fry for a minute more and then add chopped tomatoes, Turmeric and Red chilli powders. Cover and cook until mushy and soft.
Now add cleaned and well drained Red Sorrel Leaves to the pan. Add Salt at this point according to your preference. Mix well and cook on a low heat for about 15 minutes or until the water dries up. It is important to drain properly after you wash the leaves. It tends to leave a lot of water in the pan otherwise. If needed, increase the heat and keep stirring at regular intervals until oil is seen on the top.
It gets done very quickly and is a lovely instantly done Chutney. In Winters this is a must have one when this leafy vegetable is available aplenty.
Enjoy it with Ghee and plain boiled rice. You will want more of it. That's for sure. Happy Cooking People!
