Paalak Paneer

Haaaaaaa.. Calorie rich paalak and Paneer. How can an Indian resist the taste of this?

Here is my version of how I made this

The twist int he recipe is I have used Shallots and fresh whole masalas to grind . Check this out..

Palak one bunch
Paneer -1 pkt of 200 gm 
onion -2 medium
tomatos- 2 medium
Garlic -6-7 cloves
ginger-1/2 inch
shallots -5 nos
Green chilly -3 nos
curry leaves- few
cloves -2 nos
cinnanom -1/2 inch sticks 2 nos
cardamom -1 no
Pepper powder -1 tspn
Gharam Masala powder -1/4 tspn
Fresh Cream -1 tbspn

Blanch the palak and grind it to a smooth paste. Cut paneer to cubes. Grind small onions (shallots), garlic, ginger , green chilly, curry leaves, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom to a fine paste.

In a pan do the tadka using jeera and saute big onions, and then tomato. Add the paste of masalas saute nicely till the raw smell is gone. Then Add palak paste Add paneer, sprinkle reqd amt of salt . Cook till all the water content is evaporated and gravy is thick. Finally add fresh cream,pepper powder and gharam masala powderon top and cover and cook. 
This Palak recipe gives a nice flavour of the masalas and is definitely good if you really like to have a change from usual recipe.Enjoyyyyyyyyy
