A rich, satisfying, meat-free midweek meal that can be eaten with bread or rice
Eaten with bread or rice, saag paneer makes a satisfying midweek meal. Spinach is one of those vegetables that can be hard to estimate as it reduces dramatically when cooked. As this recipe is a main dish for two adults, I’ve suggested 750-900g of spinach. My personal preference is not to fry the paneer before it is added to this dish, but if you prefer to give it a little colour then follow the frying instructions in the directions.
Serves 2
fresh spinach leaves 750-900g, washed
ghee 2 tbsp, melted, or butter or vegetable oil
shallots 2, finely chopped
fresh ginger paste ½ tsp
garlic 2 cloves, crushed
paneer 100g, homemade or ready-made, cut into 2.5cm cubes
tomato 1, chopped into cubes
green chilli 1, cut in half
ground turmeric ¼ tsp
chilli powder ¼ tsp
salt to taste
double cream or clotted cream 1 tbsp
