Who says spinach is just for salads? 😉 This Lehsuni Palak Paneer is a velvety smooth, punchy, and seriously satisfying curry that's perfect for a weekend treat. It's packed with protein and iron—and amazing flavor!
Here’s how I make this vibrant green curry:
Prep the Greens: Blanch the spinach in salted water with a pinch of soda bicarbonate (that's the secret to preserving the bright green colour!). Shock it in cold water, squeeze it dry, and blend with ginger-garlic paste, green chili, mint, and coriander leaves.
Tadka Time: In a pan, heat ghee and fry cumin seeds, whole red chillies, and lots of chopped garlic until golden brown. This is where the 'Lehsuni' magic happens!
Gravy Base: Add onions and sauté until brown. Stir in your dry spices: coriander powder, red chili powder, turmeric, cumin powder, and garam masala. Add chopped tomato and cook until soft, using a splash of water if the spices get too dry.
Simmer & Finish: Pour in the spinach blend, season with salt, and simmer for about 15 minutes. Add water to get your perfect consistency, then drop in your cubed paneer (or tofu). Simmer covered for another 10 minutes.
Serve this gorgeous curry with warm naan or rice and enjoy!
