Vibrant, green palak dotted with succulent, white paneer is a lovely sight to behold, and an even tastier treat to devour. The process of blanching, pureeing and cooking the spinach with spice powders becomes really quick and easy with our handy helper, the microwave oven! A dash of fresh cream not only balances the nutty flavour of spinach beautifully, it also gives the Paneer Palak a fantastically rich texture. Enjoy hot Paneer Palak with fresh Moghlai Roti or Naan .
Method- Put the spinach in a microwave safe deep bowl and microwave on high for 2 minutes.
