Palak Baingan Ki Sabzi is a nutritious and flavorful Indian stir fry combining fresh spinach (palak) and tender eggplant (baingan) with a blend of simple spices.

The natural earthy flavors of eggplant complement the leafy spinach beautifully, and the subtle seasoning enhances the overall taste without overpowering the vegetables.

Palak Baingan Ki Sabzi recipe is one of the most simple sabzi dishes to make. I stumbled upon this vegetable when all I had to make the Gujarati Thali was tomatoes, baingan and palak.

This dish is not only rich in fiber but also packed with vitamins and minerals like iron, calcium, and antioxidants from the spinach. It's a fantastic low-calorie option for those looking to add more greens to their diet.

Serve this easy-to-make Palak Baingan Ki Sabzi with hot phulkas, parathas, or steamed rice for a wholesome and balanced meal. Whether you're meal prepping for the week or cooking a quick dinner, this vegan stir fry will become a go-to recipe.

Perfect for vegan, gluten-free, and low-carb diets, Palak Baingan Ki Sabzi can also be paired with dal or raita for a complete Indian meal experience. Try this versatile and healthy dish for a quick Indian lunch or dinner idea!
