Red Chard Saag - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 bunch red swiss chard, cleaned, stems removed
    8 tablespoons vegetable oil or 8 tablespoons ghee
    2 medium onions, minced
    2 tablespoons vindaloo curry paste
    1/2 cup water
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    2 inches ginger, minced
Preparation
    Finely chop (or process) chard leaves.
    Set aside.
    Heat oil or ghee in heavy bottomed saute pan at med-high.
    When oil is hot, add onion (be careful, as the oil may splatter) and saute until transparent.
    Add chopped chard and let wilt.
    Add vindaloo and reduce heat.
    Simmer covered, stirring occasionally, for 10-20 minutes or until desired consistency is reached.
    If you find the mixture is getting dry, add water.
    After simmering, raise heat and add garlic and ginger.
    Stir and heat for 5 minutes.
    Serve with Naan bread and/or basamati rice.
    (NOTE: If you want to add paneer or potatoes, etc, fold them into the mixture along with garlic and ginger).
