    Hi Minnu,
    Check out Reliance Fresh, Fresh @ or even your local veg vendor, will have palak.It is called Pasalai keerai in Tamil.

    Hi minnu,

    You get palak as palak in reliance fresh,more, heritage fresh, spencers...as janani says.. and ask your vendor for palak...you will get it..

    janani,

    Pasalai is not palak...palak is sold as palak by the vendors now...am now confused...pasalai is a thick leaf..not like t he palak...shakehead

    Sorry to step in. Palak has thick leaf like pasala keerai but it is different. they both belong to same family but yet they have different taste & smell. In chennai nowadays I believe many vegetable vendors are aware of palak. so, one ask for ' palak'....itself!
