Introduction

My first attempt at making Palak Paneer didn't turn out quite as I'd expected, but the result, while different, still turned out tasty. And healthy. The amounts of the spices are an estimate, since I didn't measure anything, but those are the measurements I used to calculate the nutritional information. Use your discretion.

Ingredients

    2 tsp Olive Oil
    1 tbsp Cumin seed
    1 tbsp Ground Ginger
    1/2 tsp Coriander Coriander
    1/2 tsp Turmeric
    1 tsp Black pepper
    Dash of salt
    6 Garlic cloves, chopped
    1/2 cup Seeds of Change Tikka Masala
    16 oz Frozen Spinach, thawed
    8 oz. Friendship Farmer Cheese, cut into squares

Directions

Heat olive oil in a medium sized skillet. Add spices and stir around until they start to blacken.

Add garlic, and continue cooking until garlic softens.

Add Tikka Masala and mix until all ingredients are combined.

Add spinach, mixing until the sauce is distributing evenly. Cook until the spinach softens.

Add cheese. I wasn't able to figure out how to get mine to stay solidified, so I crumbled it and mixed it all in together. You can also use paneer.

Cook until all ingredients are done. Goes well with rice and bread.

    Good
    I made a boo boo. For the Tikka Masala sauce, I found a recepie for Tikka Malala spice and put half a cup of that in. It was way tooo strong. I added two large containers of Fage Yogurt and a full big can of tomatoes to make this edible. I'll use it more as a sauce, on chicken. Have sooo much of it! - 4/8/10
