To get started with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook saag paneer using 14 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Saag Paneer:
Get 1 tbsp salt
Take 1 tbsp turmeric
Get 1/2 tsp kashmiri chili
Get 28 oz. paneer
Prepare 1 red onion
Prepare 1 tbsp chopped fresh garlic
Make ready 1 tsp freshly grated ginger
Get 1 tbsp chopped fresh turmeric
Make ready 1/2 tsp ground coriander
Take 1/4 tsp garam masala
Prepare 1/8 tsp kashmiri chili
Make ready 2 tbsp ghee
Get 1 cup yogurt
Take 1.5 lbs fresh spinach
Instructions to make Saag Paneer:
Dice paneer to 1/2 inch cubes. Toss with turmeric, salt, and chili powder and set aside to marinate.
Prep up all of the ingredients. It's good to have everything ready to go so you can focus on the pan. Slice the onion, chop the garlic and turmeric, grate the ginger. If you've never worked with fresh turmeric, you just peel it with a spoon and chop it up. You can sub dry turmeric if you like. Maybe try a tsp. Turmeric is quite subtle, so it's tough to really put too much.
You should also puree the spinach. Toss it in the blender with a little water and chop it smooth. You can also just chop it manually if you prefer the leaves to keep a little of their shape.
Melt ghee in a medium sauce pan. Add the onion and stir over gentle heat until it's tender.
Stir in the garlic, ginger, turmeric and spices. Keep stirring over medium until the spices are toasted a bit. A lot of recipes call this the key step. This mixture should be gently toasted for quite awhile, until the onions are nearly caramelized really. You'll find that this long and gentle toasting of onion, spices, etc. is a common theme in Indian cooking. Take special care here and I'm sure that after a few goes, you'll find a technique you like. But, don't let that keep you from improving.
Stir in the spinach, and bring to a simmer. You'll probably wanna put a lid on the pot. Pureed spinach will bubble and spatter all over the stove otherwise.
Stir in the marinated paneer. Again, bring it back to a simmer.
Add the yogurt, and adjust the salt. You're good to go.
