All kinds of leaf vegetables can be used, such as chard, endive, lettuce and spinach.
The recipe can very well be prepared as an Indian charchari where spiced vegetable bits form a baked layer at the bottom of the pan which at the end is mixed into the vegetable mash.
For a more mediterranean taste also dried basil, majoram and oregano, ¼ tea spoon each, can be added.
The ingredients are fit for about two portions.
