If you are a fan of Indian cuisine, you have most likely tried or heard of Palak Paneer. This creamy and flavorful spinach and paneer dish is a staple in many Indian restaurants and households. Today, we will be sharing a restaurant-style Palak Paneer recipe that will impress your family and friends.
To start off, you will need the following ingredients:
– 500g fresh spinach (palak)
– 200g paneer
– 1 onion, chopped
– 2 tomatoes, chopped
– 3-4 garlic cloves
– 1-inch piece of ginger
– 1-2 green chilies
– 1 tsp cumin seeds
– 1 tsp garam masala
– 1 tsp turmeric powder
– 1 tsp red chili powder
– Salt to taste
– 2 tbsp oil
– 1/2 cup cream
First, clean the spinach thoroughly and blanch it in boiling water for 2-3 minutes. Then, transfer the spinach to a bowl of ice water to retain its vibrant green color. Drain the spinach and blend it into a puree along with the garlic, ginger, and green chilies.
Next, heat oil in a pan and add cumin seeds. Once they splutter, add the chopped onions and sauté until golden brown. Then, add the chopped tomatoes and cook until they turn soft. Add the spice powders – turmeric, red chili, and garam masala, and mix well.
Now, add the spinach puree and let it simmer for a few minutes. Adjust the consistency with water if needed. Cut the paneer into cubes and add them to the spinach mixture. Let the flavors meld together for a few more minutes.
Finally, add cream to the Palak Paneer and give it a good stir. Check for seasoning and adjust as necessary. Garnish with a dollop of cream and a sprinkle of garam masala.
Your restaurant-style Palak Paneer is now ready to be served hot with naan or rice. Enjoy the creamy goodness and rich flavors of this classic Indian dish!
