Directions
Heat the Oil: In a pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Make sure it is hot but not smoking.
Add Garlic: Once the oil is heated, add the minced garlic and sauté until it turns golden brown and aromatic.
Incorporate Green Chilies: Add the slit green chili to the pan, stirring it into the garlic. This will infuse the oil with a spicy flavor.
Add Hirva Math Leaves: Gradually add the chopped Hirva Math leaves to the pan. Stir well to combine with the garlic and chilies.
Season with Salt: Sprinkle the salt over the leaves and mix everything thoroughly. The leaves will start to wilt and reduce in volume.
Cook Until Tender: Continue cooking for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the Hirva Math leaves are soft and cooked through.
Serve Hot: Once cooked, transfer the sabji to a serving dish. Enjoy it hot with chapati, rice, or as a side dish!
Notes
People with kidney stones should consume Hirva Math in moderation, as it contains oxalates, which can exacerbate this condition.
Always consult with a healthcare provider if you have existing health issues.
