Clean and cut the palak roughly and cook it for 2 minutes on boiling water.
Drain the water, allow it to cool and grind it in a mixer along with green chillies to make a smooth paste.
Cut the onions too roughly and grind it coarsely.
Take a kadai, heat butter, add the ground onion, saute well.
Add ginger-garlic paste, saute well again till the raw smell goes.
When it is ready, add the ground palak, pepper powder, garam masala, cumin powder, salt and stir it by adding some water. Dont make it too watery ! Add 1 tbsp butter to it and let it be on low flame.
By this time cut paneer into small pieces and fry it in oil. Remember not to make it dark brown or crispy instead just two minutes till it turns very light golden and soft.
Add the paneer pieces to the palak gravy and let it boil on low flame for 2-3 minutes.
Remove the palak paneer gravy from the stove, add 1 tbsp of butter and garnish it with grated paneer.
If you wish to add more butter or make it more spicy you can increase the quantity of the ingredients.
It's a Healthy food for kids and i am sure they would love it !!
