Add 1/2 cup poppy seeds to a clean bowl and add in just enough water to submerge all the poppy seeds (water should be @ room temperature and not cold) - Set this aside for 30 minutes
After 30 mins the poppy seeds will have absorbed all the water and would have puffed up
Add the puffed up seeds to a a blender pot and blend them to a paste
Transfer this paste to a bowl & crack in an egg - Mix well
Now add in the salt, onions, spinach, chilli powder and thyme to the paste - Mix well until combined
Next, heat a skillet add in a teaspoon of ghee when adequately hot
Drop in a dollop of the paste with the help of a sppon so that it forms small circles - much like pancakes / fritters
Cover the skillet and cook the fritters from one side for about a minute or so until they are set nicely
Flip and then cover the skillet to cook from the other side
