Recipe for "sagh"

NAME

     SAGH - An Indian spinach side-dish
     This recipe is from Indian Cookery: A  Practical  Guide,  by
     Dharamjit   Singh,  which  is  undoubtedly  translated  into
     English, as many of the phrases are awkward.

INGREDIENTS (serves 6)

     1 kg      raw spinach
     15 g      butter
     30 ml     water
     5 ml      ground ginger
     pinch     sugar
               salt, to taste

PROCEDURE

          (1)  Chop spinach (a food processor comes in handy) and
               mix well with other ingredients.
          (2)  Cook over high heat for  2  minutes.   Cover,  and
               cook  for  20  minutes  on  medium  heat, stirring
               fairly often.
          (3)  Salt to taste.

RATING

     Difficulty: easy.  Time: 30 minutes.  Precision: no need  to
     measure.
