Healthy Corn Palak Soup for Pregnant women


During first trimester of my pregnancy, I had lot of difficulty eating Palak. It helps in treating iron deficiency.  I and my sister in law together tried making tasty soup out of it. My sister in law doesn’t like boiled palak as it loses it colour and texture.

Preparation Time: 10 mins
Cooking Time: 10 mins
Makes 2 servings

Ingredients:


1 bunch of palak, cleaned and washed
1 pinch asafoetida (hing)                                                                                                                                             
1/4th cup sweet corn kernel, boiled
1 piece of green chillie
1 tbsp oil
1 cube grated cheese
salt to taste
Water as needed

Method:

  1. Wash palak and grind it in a mixer.
  2. Heat oil in a kadai pan and add cumin seeds and asafoetida
  3. When they crackle, add palak mixture & sweet corn kernels.
  4. Add salt to taste and boil for 5-10 minutes. Add water as needed.
  5. Garnish it with grated cheese and serve hot.
