1. Put chopped spinach and all daals in cooker and cook well for 3 whistles putting just enough water.
2. Once cooker is cooled down, in the cooker only, churn the palak well with the manual churner what we use for preparing buttermilk. ( रवी ). Since palak is cooked well it will become soft and even consistent.
3. Put pan for heating. Pour 1 Tsp oil. Let it heat. Put mustard seeds and let it splutter. Add cumin seeds, curry leaves,chopped green chillies, Asafoetida,turmeric. 
4. Pour the Spinach-daal mixture in it and stir well.
5. Add water as required by you. Whatever thin or thick consistency you want.
6. Mix well. Add coriander powder,cumin powder,salt to taste,sugar.
7. Let it boil for 4-5 min. Stir well from bottom properly.
8. Keep a small pan on different stove with 1 Tsp oil to heat.
9. Once oil is hot, add chopped garlic . wait till it turns golden brown. Pour this Tadaka on the curry and cover the curry immediately. ( This will prevent the Tadka aroma from escaping)

Serve hot with chapatis or even rice. 

Happy eating!
