Ok - I am stumped - what is "thotakura" - is it like spinach? I am so tired of cooking the regular spinach, collard greens - I speak tamil - so is there a tamil word for this? I can check with the local indian grocery store if I know the hindi word for it. Help...

shobana,
Take a look at this link (the second picture) for the edible amaranth. I think it is 'Mulai keerai'.

Was not well and so no cooking for the past 3 days. Yesterday it was garlic rasam and potato fry for dinner.
Palak paneer and chapathy for the kids' lunch and chikku mil shake for breakfast.
Planning to make pani puri for evening and should think of something for dinner again.
