30g / 2 tbsp ghee or unsalted butter ((for pan frying, Note 2))
30g/2 tbsp ghee or unsalted butter ((Note 2))
1 1/2 onions (, finely chopped (brown or yellow))
1 tsp fenugreek seeds (whole) ((Note 3))
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
3/4 tsp salt (, kosher/cooking salt (if using table salt, reduce by 1/4 tsp))
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 garlic cloves (, finely chopped)
2 tsp ginger (, finely grated (20g))
2 tomatoes (, peeled, seeded and diced (Note 4))
1 green chilli (, finely sliced (cayenne, Note 5))
700g/ 1.4lb fresh spinach leaves (English spinach) (, thoroughly washed and roughly chopped (~9 cups very tightly packed) (Note 6))
1/4 cup water
1/3 cup + 1 tbsp cream ((pure, heavy or thickened))
1 tbsp lemon juice

Steps:

Saute onion & spices: Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, fenugreek, cumin, coriander, salt and pepper. Cook for 3 minutes until onion is softened but not golden.
Add garlic and ginger, cook for 2 minutes.
Add the tomato and chilli, cook for 3 minutes on a medium heat.
Add spinach: Add about 1/3 of the spinach - or as much as you can handle in the pot (!) - and stir until wilted. Then add more spinach along with the water, cook again until wilted. Repeat until all the spinach is wilted.
Cook 10 minutes: Cook, stirring every now and then, for 10 minutes still on a medium heat.
Cream & lemon: Add the cream and lemon juice. Cook, stirring gently, for 3 minutes.
Puree half spinach: Remove half the spinach into a tall container and blend it to a puree using a stick blender. Pour pureed spinach back into the pot, and stir to combine.
Add Pan Fried Paneer: Gently stir in golden pan-fried paneer (see below). Stir gently to mix through.
Serve over basmati rice with fluffy, chewy homemade naan on the side!

CURRY SAUCE

Curry Sauce image

This is a flavorful curry sauce from a recipe given to me by an Indian friend that's great with chickpeas or vegetables. I love to throw it in the slow cooker with frozen mixed veggies all day for a healthy Indian dinner. This sauce also freezes beautifully.
