Bathua leaves

Bathua leaves, also known as lamb's quarters or pigweed, are dark green leafy vegetables commonly used in Indian cuisine. These leaves are rich in essential nutrients such as vitamins A and C, iron, calcium, and antioxidants. Bathua leaves have a slightly tangy flavour and a tender texture, making them versatile for both raw and cooked dishes. They are often used in salads, soups, curries, and stir-fries. When purchasing, look for fresh and vibrant leaves, free from wilting or yellowing. To store Bathua leaves, wrap them in a damp paper towel and place them in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
