Palak Paneer by Ira



Thanks married and mehroo, you guys are too kind. I loosely followed the recipe at the following link meaning that followed the general idea but used my own measurements for masalas. I think the secret ingredient was ground garam masala, it gave a really nice flavor and resturant style smell to it.

Palak Paneer (Indian Fresh Spinach with Paneer Cheese) Recipe : Recipezaar

I also made my own paneer by heating milk till right before it boils and then added lemon juice and vinegar in small quantities until the paneer seperated completely from the liquid thingy. Then i strained it in a cloth (i didnt have cheesecloth so i used my chapati rakhnay wala kapra). When it was drained extremely well, i put it in my magic bullet to make a smooth paste type and added a dust of flour to prevent stickiness. Then shaped into balls and shallow fried before adding to the palak.
