Really easy to make! The paste was hard to make with only 15 cashews and milk so it ended up watering down the palak paneer but it was overall a delicious dish!
Simple & yummy!!
Light flavour. Very nice.
Tastes great. Would be nice if the ingredient list was updated to list cumin seeds instead of just cumin
Easy wnough recipe. I wonder if my garam masala spice mix was the same as intended. Its not a fixed blend unfortunately so the spice flavoring could be quite a bit different depending on that spice. I made homemade palak for the meal too 🙂
Made it vegan with tofu in place of panneer… Add tofu after puree step and do another 1-2 minutes at pressure. Also use olive oil in place of the butter and soy milk in place of milk. I also double or triple the garlic, ginger, and hot peppers
Wonderful. My wife said that it is so good she could drink it.
