Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Spinach

Wash the spinach leaves thoroughly and blanch them in boiling water for 2-3 minutes. Drain and immediately transfer to ice water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, blend the spinach to a smooth paste.

2

Cook the Base

In a pan, heat the cooking oil over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter. Then add finely chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.

3

Add Spices and Tomatoes

Stir in the ginger-garlic paste, chopped tomato, green chili, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook until the tomato softens.

4

Combine Spinach and Paneer

Add the spinach puree to the pan and mix well. Add the paneer cubes and water. Stir to combine and let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes.

5

Final Touch

Sprinkle garam masala on top and stir gently. Cook for another minute and adjust seasoning if necessary.
