Everyone will love this curry, and you'll eat so much spinach!! I feel like my family eats this whenever they're in a good mood.

You can also use a lump of cottage cheese in place of the paneer; this tastes great with just spinach if you can't find it, or, with a simple internet search, you can find many ways to make your own. For 3-5 servings. Recipe by Guri
