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 -
