    Instructions

    1. Blanch the spinach by bringing a pot of water to a rolling boil and dunk the washed spinach leaves in it. Let it simmer for about 2 mins and remove.
    2. Puree into a smooth paste. Drain the water and in the same pot, heat the ghee gently before adding the ground cumin and within 5 seconds add the chopped onions. Saute until golden brown before adding remaining ground spices.
    3. Fry for a few seconds, taking care not to burn the spices. Next, add the minced ginger, garlic and tomato paste.
    4. Mix well and then add the pureed spinach. Top this off with the milk. Mix well, bring to boil and add the fenugreek leaves and salt.
    5. Cook covered for about 6-8 mins. Gently add the paneer pieces or your chosen substitute into the gravy.
    6. Finish off with coconut yoghurt and a sprinkle of garam masala. Mix well and remove from the stove. Serve hot with your chosen sides. Enjoy!
