CREAMY SPINACH (MALAI PALAK)
Fresh tender spinach sauteed in butter with chillies and enriched with cream. Very quick and simply delicious. You can use regular butter in place of the ghee. TIP: Deep fried cottage cheese or tofu cubes can be added to the spinach just before all the water has dried up. Cover and keep warm so that the cottage cheese or tofu cubes are soft. Mix in the cream just before serving.
