Indian sorrel, chopped
Spinach Leaves, chopped
1 tsp cumin seeds
2 tsp Asefoetida
2 medium size onions, chopped
1 1/2 tsp garlic, chopped
1 1/2 tsp ginger, chopped
Bottel gourd, chopped

1 tsp finely chopped green chilli
Salt to taste

I remember having tried it 15yrs. bk from cook book wen I was a school girl, enthusiastic about cooking. It was a total disaster, making me reconsider the thought of cooking again in life. I continued to cook , however still Scared to try it.
