Hi all:) I have been out of blogland close to a week thanx to a virus I picked up somewhere:( Anywayz now I am back. Yay!!!!!!!!!

This dish is one of the really popular recipes in India.The creamy texture of the spinach alongwith fresh cheese is just irresistable:) So here we go MUGHLAI PALAK PANEER ( SERVES 4) Lets roll

Instructions

1. Boil chopped spinach alongwith ginger for 10 minutes.

2. 

   Heat oil,add seeds of cardamom,cloves & pepper corns.Add ground onion,tomato paste & stir on low flame for 5 minutes.

3. 

   Add dried fenugreek & stir till oil starts seperating like this

4. 

   Add dried mango powder.Add boiled spinach & cook for 2-3 minutes.Remove from fire.Let it cool.

5. 

   Meanwhile chop the cottage cheese into small pieces like this

6. Cool & blend the spinach for a few secods,do not grind it too fine.Now add 1/2 cup of milk if you find it too thick & simmer covered for 2-3 minutes.

7. 

   Now beat the fresh cream with a fork & add it to the spinach on low fire.

8. 

   Add the cottage cheese pieces,give it a boil.I prefer adding salt at this last stage as I get a better idea of the quantity after the spinach has been simmered,besides the milk & cream do not curdle!!!!!

9. 

   Simmer for 2 minutes & transfer it to a serving dish & TaDaaaaa.............you are done!!!!!!!!!! Doesnt it look tempting:) This tastes best with Indian flat bread called roti or parantha.I guess I will add a recipe on how to make them too.But first I have to make them for my own lunch:) I will keep clicking pics & come back with another recipe after lunch:)
