Andhra Style Palakura Vepudu with Garlic Recipe | Palak Stir fry by Archana's Kitchen
Growing up in coastal Andhra, a quick Palakura Vepudu recipe was my mom's answer to week‑night dinners—fragrant curry‑leaf tempering, tender spinach that stays vibrantly green, and a mellow hit of garlic. This South‑Indian stir‑fry comes from the Telugu‑speaking regions where “vepudu” simply means “pan‑roast.”  Andhra cuisine is known for bold chilli heat and aromatic tempering. Using everyday pantry spices keeps the dish authentic yet fuss‑free. Mustard‑cumin tempering adds nutty depth, urad dal gives tiny crunchy pops, while spinach wilts into a juicy, mildly spiced tangle. A squeeze of lemon at the end brightens everything. Iron‑rich spinach teams up with anti‑inflammatory garlic, protein‑packed urad dal, and antioxidant‑loaded curry leaves. In winter—peak spinach season in India—the greens are sweetest and cheapest. Serve this Palakura Vepudu recipe with hot steamed rice, Andhra Dosakaya Pappu and a dollop of homemade ghee, or roll it inside Jolada Roti for a high‑fiber lunch box. A cooling cup of spiced buttermilk (chaas) rounds out the meal. if you are looking for more Spinach Recipes, here are some that can be made for your Indian Lunch or Dinner:  Palak Paneer (Spinach in Cottage Cheese Gravy) Spinach Rice Recipe (Palak Pulao) Spinach Paneer Kofta Curry Recipe
