ReplyDeleteLove the colour of the palak paneer dear,Clicks are awesome...
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE Palak Paneer. I order it everything I go to a local Indian restaurant. However, I've never tried to make it but with your recipe and photographs (which are awesome), you've inspired me. I notice you don't tell how to make the paneer. Do you make it or is it something you buy? I live in the southwest USA so it's not a standard item in our grocery stores, but I might be able to find it in a specialty market. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAhhhhh...yummmm Palak paneer..

Isn't it so simple to make. I reduce one more step from this. Use baby spinach or chopped spinach and thus not needing to puree it. Your presentation is tempting.
ReplyDeleteYum! I have never cooked with paneer, but am really interested in trying. Do you have a good recipe to make it from scratch?
ReplyDeleteLoved your recipe Lavi and clicks are cool too!
