    Amaranthus cruentus commonly known as African spinach is a flowering plant species that yields the nourishing staple amaranth grain. It is one of three Amaranthus species cultivated as a grain source, the other two being Amaranthus hypochondriacus and Amaranthus caudatus. The plant is native to Central-South America particularly Peru. In Mexico, it is called huautli and in English it has numerous common names, including Indian-spinach, Sudan-spinach, blood amaranth, bush greens, caterpillar amaranth, panicled amaranth, purple amaranth, red amaranth, red shank, wild amaranth, grain amaranth, velvet flower, prince’s feather and Mexican grain amaranth. In Maharashtra, it is called shravani maath or rajgira. In Kerala, it is called chuvanna cheera or commonly, cheera.

    This species was in use as a food source in Central America as early as 4000 BC. The seeds are eaten as a cereal grain. They are black in the wild plant, and white in the domesticated form. They are ground into flour, popped like popcorn, cooked into porridge, and made into a confectionery called alegría. The leaves can be cooked like spinach, and the seeds can be germinated into nutritious sprouts. While A. cruentus is no longer a staple food, it is still grown and sold as a health food. In Maharashtra, during month of Shravan, a stir fried vegetable with just grated coconut is served during festivals. The stem is used in curry made up of Vaal Hyacinth bean.
