Recently I could harvest a lot of spinach from my veg-garden. I love spinach so much, as it is highly nutritious as well as tasty. I tried mixing it with Paneer without loosing the vitamin value to make an excellent side dish for chappathis,roties,poori etc. This dish is not only highly nutritious but is a wonderful blend of taste ,texture and flavour....

I love paneer cubes dipped in spinach sauce (and frankly who doesn't!). One of my best friends from my past life in Michigan (shout out to the one and only Vaibhav Sharma ladies and gentlemen) cooked it during a couple of get togethers (he is a pro!). Hence, I took up the challenge of perfecting it myself. This one in the honor of Vaibhav and numerous occasions he has cooked it for me. Sunpreet Singh Arora
