Ingredients
Paneer - 200 grams
Onion - 2
Cashew nuts - 15
Palak (Spinach) - 300 grams
Ginger - 1 small piece
Garlic - 4 cloves
Water - 1/4 cup
Red chilly Powder - 2 teaspoon
Oil
Salt
Clean spinach in water. Drain off the water completely. In a pan or vessel, add 1/4 cup water. Once it starts boiling, add palak . Cover the vessel with a lid and let it cook in low flame for 2 to 4 minutes. Keep this aside.
In a separate pan, add 4 table spoon of water. Add the first sliced onion in this and let it cook for two to three minutes. Switch off the flame and transfer this in a grinder to make a thick paste along with cashew nuts.
Meanwhile heat a pan. Add 2 table spoon of oil. Add the second sliced onion to this. Saute it until it becomes golden brown in color. Add ginger, garlic paste. Saute it again for a minute. Now add Red chilly powder and salt. Saute it again for few seconds. Now add Onion, Cashew nuts paste to it. And let it cook for a minute. Finally add Palak paste and paneer. Mix it well. Allow it to cook for 2 to three minutes.
Add extra water if you like gravy. Palak paneer is tasty with less water and also try adding Kashmiri red chilly if you don't like the green color. Try this easy recipe and let me know if you like it. And ofcourse the credit for this recipe goes to my Bengali friend Soumita Dey!!! Thanks dear for this tasty recipe. Am a fan of your Palak paneer.
