5. Now add greens also and sauté again for two more minutes.

6. Now add roasted gram powder. Mix thoroughly and sauté for a minute. No need to add salt because roasted gram powder contains salt.

7. Switch off the flame and transfer into a serving bowl.

8. Now the delicious spring onion stir fry is ready to serve with hot steamed rice and melted ghee.

Tips:

1. I have added roasted gram powder to enhance the flavour of the stir fry, instead you can add own masalas of your choice. Grated fresh coconut can also be added at the end.
2. To prepare roasted gram powder, take 2 tbsp of roasted gram/Putnalu in a mixer grinder. Add 2/3 red chillies along with salt. Grind them to a fine powder and add the powder to the stir fry before switching off the flame. Three or four garlic flakes can also be added.
