1. Right Ingredients

Start by gathering fresh mustard greens, spinach, and bathua (if you can find it). Go for younger, tender leaves to ensure your saag turns out smooth.

2. Prepping

Chop the greens finely to make them easier to cook and to get that velvety texture. Don't forget to add a pinch of salt while boiling.

3. Choosing The Right Pot

A heavy-bottomed pot works best for slow cooking. It ensures an even texture and helps the flavours come together nicely.

4. Slow Cooking

Slow cooking brings out the best flavours. Use a pressure cooker or a deep pan, and let the greens simmer until they melt together.

5. Tempering

In a separate pan, heat some ghee and your favourite spices. Pour this flavorful tadka over the saag to give it that extra punch.
