  1. First boil the spinach leaves in the water for about 3 minutes.
  2. Now remove the spinach leaves from the water and make the paste of  boiled spinach.
  3. Then, mix the paste with wheat flour and add crushed cumin seeds, plain curd, butter, ginger-green chilli paste and salt.
  4. Make a soft smooth dough by mixing all the ingredients and some water as per requirement.
