Palak Paneer

35 min 4 servings Vegetarian North Indian

A smooth spinach gravy with paneer cubes, balanced with ginger, garlic, and a touch of cream for an easy weeknight dinner.

250g paneer (cubed)

300g spinach (blanched)

1 onion (sliced)

1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste

1 green chilli

2 tbsp cream

1 tsp garam masala

Salt to taste

Blanch spinach, cool it quickly, and blend into a smooth puree.

Saute onion until soft, then add ginger-garlic paste and green chilli.

Cook in the spinach puree and season with salt and garam masala.

Fold in paneer cubes and simmer gently for a few minutes.

Finish with cream and serve hot with roti or jeera rice.

Pro Tip

A quick ice-water shock after blanching helps keep the spinach bright and prevents the gravy from turning dull.
