Generally, spinach is combined with paneer or potatoes in everyday cooking. In this easy subzi, it is combined with sprouted matki, to exponentially increase the nutrient content. Sprouting increases the iron and vitamin A content of moath beans, while spinach adds iron, folic acid and vitamin C to this innovative dish. A special masala paste made with everyday spices makes the Spinach and Moath Beans Curry extremely flavourful.
