Palak Papad

Spinach papad is iron-rich, lightly savoury and pleasantly green, crisping up thin and light rather than heavy. It is a genuinely clever way to get greens into a child's meal, since the spinach is completely undetectable in texture and mild in taste. Palak brings iron, folate and vitamin K to an otherwise simple side dish. Roast over a flame or shallow fry, and store the rest airtight and dry. Greens on the plate, with no negotiation required.
