Method

Wash the spinach well and blanch in boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain into cold water, then blend with the green chillies into a smooth puree, using very little water.
Heat the oil, add the cumin, then the onion, and cook until golden. Add the ginger and garlic and cook for a minute. Add the tomato and cook until soft.
Add the spinach puree, salt and garam masala. Simmer for 5 minutes and no longer, to keep the colour bright.
Add the paneer and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the cream and serve with roti or rice.

Tips

Plunging blanched spinach into cold water keeps the gravy bright green instead of army-olive.
