Notes

 Palak soup /spinach soup is an easy, creamy and low-calorie soup made with spinach leaves, onions, spices, a yummy flavour of garlic and spice of ginger and black pepper. Sipping a hot soup in freezing cold winter evenings is everybody's favourite pastime... so is mine. ;)
According to my MOM's recipe, I used to add milk to make it little creamy. You can skip it also.
Also, You can add cumin powder to make it full of flavours.
