Ingredients

Palak paneer curry is made with spinach and Indian cottage cheese. Blanched and pureed spinach is cooked with spices, and paneer is simmered on low heat. To reduce the bitterness of the spinach leaves, the cream is added, which also adds to the richness of the curry. Yogurt or milk can also be used in place of cream.

31/2 bunches of spinach (Blanched and pureed spinach)
3-4 spoons of olive oil
11/4 spoon of ground cumin
Two nicely diced onions
3-4 chilies (green)
1 spoon of fresh ginger and garlic, crushed
275g paneer (small cubes and fried)
Two tomatoes finely cut
One tablespoon coriander powder
One spoon of cream for taste
One spoon masala powder
Red pepper flakes (for taste)
1 Tablespoon salt

Instructions

Using a skillet, heat two tablespoons of olive oil on medium heat, and add diced onion until they become tender for about 5 minutes.
Add garlic, cumin, cream, masala, red pepper flakes, curry powder, and salt. Let them cook for 1 minute but stir until scented.
Using water, mix tomatoes, ginger, spinach into the diced onion mixture and simmer for about 20 minutes. Then let them cool for 5 minutes to remove the heat.
Using a blender, blend the spinach mixture until they become smooth.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil using medium heat.
Cook paneer for about 5 minutes until it turns light brown.
Stir spinach mixture into the skillet with paneer.
Cook for about 3-5 minutes, but ensure it's heated through.

Notes

Palak paneer recipes may differ slightly from one individual to another, particularly on flavors, but the main ingredients, pureed spinach, cheese, or cream, remain the same.
