spinach paneer

What do you need?

  • 1 LB spinach, 2 large onions, 1 large tomato, 1 green chili
  • 1 spoon freshly chopped ginger, half spoon minced garlic, dried fenugreek ( kasuri methi). Kitchen King Masala (purely optional)

Step by Step

  1. Step 1 – Boil spinach in a large utensil for 3-4 mins. Remove and Strain spinach.
  2. Step 2 – Use a Blender – make Purée of the boiled spinach (add 1/2 cup water,  1/2 green chili, some salt). Mix until pureed. An option to frying your tomatoes (step 3), is to simply puree them along with the spinach. There’s no downside to this – and the paste is a little more consistent (instead of having pieces of tomatoes floating around).
  3. Step 3 – In a separate cooking pot – Fry 2 chopped onions, 1 spoon freshly chopped Ginger, half spoon minced garlic, spoon of kasuri methi ( dried fenugreek) , half green chili. Add 1 spoon garam masala, 1/2 spoon of kitchen king masala ( both available at Indian grocery stores….this masala is optional).  To the fried mixture above, add 1 chopped tomato. Fry all this till onions are brown and tomatoes are more or less blended into the mixture.
  4. Step 4 –  Add pureed spinach to the cooking pot containing onions and spices. Add salt.
  5. Wait Step – Simmer mixture for 5 minutes.
  6. Step 5 – Add paneer ( cottage cheese) and cook on medium to low heat for another 5 minutes.
