Clean and blanch Spinach for 50 seconds. And put it in chilled iced water.

Make a fine paste of Ginger and green chilli. Also once spinach gets cool completely, make a fine puree of it too.

Now heat butter and oil together. Add Cumin Seeds, turmeric, Ciba Hing and Garlic Chilli Paste. Cook it till it sees little pinkish brown.

Turn off the heat and pour spinach puree in. And mix it well. Keep it aside.

Now chop cottage cheese into small cubes and shallow fry it on the pan till it gets the golden texture. Sprinkle some salt and pepper and toss it.

Now take spinach mixture again on heat once it cools down. These will help it to keep its nice green colour. Heat it till it gets the first boil.

Then add cottage cheese, fresh cream, 1 tsp of sugar, ciba meat masala (for its nice flavour) and salt. Stir it. And let it cook for another 4-5 mins. Do not keep lid at any point.

Our palak paneer is ready now. Serve it with some cream garnish and potato crispies.
