You can find Amaranth in Oriental stores like Chinese or Korean. They call it red shen choy or sometimes red amaranth.

Sounds very tasty. I do think it's interesting to read on people's blogs about what vegetables are eaten in various places around the world. Great post about how you are mixing the cooking of India with the produce in your new home.

I've never had swiss chard, we do not get those here but we do get our fair share of other green leafy veggies which I'm sure you'd enjoy.

I Love swiss chards too! the first pic looks gr8

Chard is one of the most gorgeous greens around. Your camera has done it proud. Can't wait to see installments 2 & 3.

Keerai masiyall.. looks yumm. very true I did not have keerai for atleast a couple of years after coming to US. For me keerai meant sirukeerai to me.

Luckily we get most indian varieties of keerai.

Btw I was looking for all-natural hand wash. Saw the method products all of them contain sodium lauryl sulfate or its derivants.. I am interested to know your take on it-

Nupur, How I wish there is such a system here in the US. What more can you ask for than fresh greens and veges.

ISG, Sun is never a problem in my city. In fact, it is in excess :).

Laavanya, Sure try.

Rightly said Sunita. There is no point in cribbing anymore. Do post green recipes that you know of.

Sra, Chard most definitely does not taste like amaranth. But

The green here adapt pretty well to different styles of Indian cooking and your recipe is a glowing proof! Lookes lovely! Next time i cook chard, i'll make it this way.

2008-01-08T13:01:00.000-07:00

try growing chard - from seed, or from a sapling. easiest thing ever. it even grows indoors. and the growing season lasts from spring to fall.

2008-01-08T11:36:00.000-07:00

I am with you Suganya, i ahve nto tried too many of those greens yet (apart from turnip greens and mustard greens and of course lettuce). Will have to try the chards now :-) So is this like keerai masiyal or molagootal?? Will definitely pick up some swiss chard on my next grocery trip!

Wow it is really clever the way u used the veggie.
I always complain that here i don't get the same veggies like we get in India.

2008-01-08T06:25:00.000-07:00

I've tried this masiyal business just once and I was not able to mash it with the daal masher - I put it in the blender and was rewarded with a thick soup. And somehow my dish didn't taste like the amaranth dish I've tasted elswhere - what could have gone wrong I wonder. Yours looks lovely, I'm a greens freak.

2008-01-08T06:08:00.000-07:00

Sug, the thing that me and Dinesh crib at times is the availability of so many varied greens in Assam..like you, we too had our friendly lad who came to our house regularly to sell greens...but when you're in another place , innovation is the name of the game, as you too have found out, and done so well.We too make use of the local produce rather than go gaga over something that has been flown

2008-01-08T05:40:00.000-07:00

Suganya, love em greens, more now when they are not readily available than when they were. I discovered pretty late about couple of years ago and have been hooked ever since. Your keerai masiyal looks tasty.

If you have a sunny spot and a pot you should grow them, grow with no fuss.
