Palak paneer is a vegetarian dish, consisting of paneer in a thick paste made from puréed spinach.

The combination of both palak–paneer is good for your health. Paneer contains high protein and palak is rich in iron. It helps in weight loss.

palak paneer

NOTE

  1. I have added fresh malai paneer cubes , so i did nt fry it . You can shallow fry the paneer before adding.
  2. Cook and serve immediately.It doesn’t taste good if reheated also the colour changes on reheating.
  3. Make sure not to over cook the palak while blanching ,let it cook exactly for 4 mins.
  4. Add little sugar to retain the colour.
  5. Instead of paneer you can use tofu.
  6. Instead of blending the spinach you can coarsely chop it.
  7. Keep the ingredients ready and prepare while serving..Serve immediately when done .
