Ingredients

Spinach - 2 bunches (finely chopped)

Milk - 1 litre

Lemon juice - 1 tbsp

Red chilly powder - 1 tbsp

Cumin seeds - 1 tsp

Coriander seed powder - 1 tbsp

Salt - as required

Onions - 2 shallots

Green chillies - 2 long pieces (cut vertically)

Garlic - 6 cloves

Tomato - 2 big sized

Mysore gram/ Green gram - 1 tbsp (optional, used for good taste)

Water - as required

Directions

Gently warm the milk and squeeze a little lemon juice in it.

Let the milk split into a transparent liquid and little lumps of soft white matter.

Filter the split milk through a clean muslin cloth. Let the milk water drain.

The milk fat, that remained in the cloth is called the PANEER. Make cubes and keep aside. (No problem if could not make cubes, leave it powdery)

In a pressure cooker, with 1/2 a cup water pressure cook, the chopped spinach and the green grams. Once it is done, filter the water and keep everything aside. (the water has all the spinach-nutrients, don't pour it away)

Deep fry chopped onions and tomatoes in oil.

Grind the -> fried onions, tomatoes, -> cooked and drained spinach and gram, -> red chilly powder, -> coriander powder and -> salt to a not-so-coarse paste.

Heat oil and add some cumin seeds. Add chopped onions and let it cook.

Now add the ground paste. And add the water that you filtered from the cooker. If required, add little more water.

Allow it boil. Stir it seasonly.

When the curry is free from fresh smell (uncooked smell) of the spinach, add PANEER cubes.

Spread whipped cream/cheese and serve hot.
