Steps to make a Punjabi Pind (Village) Style ~ Sarson ka saag aur Makki ki Roti
1
Wash & clean green leafy vegetables properly. Then chop all green leafy vegetables and also chop onion, ginger & garlic using knife or food processor. Take deep cooking pan, put all green leafy vegetables and onion, ginger, garlic mix in it and add hot boiling water with salt (as per taste).
2
Once saag (greens) starts boiling, add all dried spices excluding asafoetida, mix and cover the lid for saag to cook on medium low flame. In the meantime, knead the corn flour dough with small amount of salt & water and keep it aside to rest.
3
Keep on mashing the greens using steel masher or mathni (wooden churner) so that all greens are mixed properly. After 30 min, add 3-4 tablespoon corn flour in the green and mix well and ensure to use masher so that there are no lumps of corn flour in the greens. Greens will take approximately 45 min to 1 hour to cook properly and to come at the consistency needed.

Once green are cooked and mashed well, time to temper it. Heat mustard oil in the pan. Once hot enough, add 1 teaspoon mustard seeds, 2 dried red chilies, some chopped garlic pods, asafoetida and then add cooked saag (greens). Mix everything well and let saag cook for another 5 minutes.

Now it’s time to make corn flour flat bread (makki ki roti). Put the iron tawa (skillet or griddle) on gas so that it is hot enough when we start making corn flour flat bread. Take a parchment paper or butter paper on rolling board, start spreading small amount of kneaded corn flour dough using hands. Make roti (flat bread) of 4 inch diameter and ½ cm thickness. Use splash on water on hands while spreading the bread.

Now put this maize flour flat bread on hot skillet and let it get cooked. Once you see those dark spots on one side, flip it for other side to also get cooked properly.

TIPS:Do not pressure cook the saag, it has to be cooked and mashed together to get that nice consistency. If possible cook saag and roti on earthen stove (chulha) or charcoal stove to get that authentic flavor. Corn flour is little tricky to handle so ensure to use butter paper or parchment paper for spread it using hands. Proportion of greens: Bathua (Chenopodium album) & Palak (spinach) will be 1/3 of mustard greens.
