Now, I know what you’re thinking. “Just two ingredients? That can’t be right.” But trust me on this one, folks – sometimes simplicity is key.
To prepare this delicious dish, all you need to do is heat up some olive oil in a pan, then add the ready to eat palak paneer and cook until heated through. Easy as pie!
But wait, there’s more. For those of you who like a little extra flavor in your food, I also found this scrumptious palak paneer from Regal Kitchen Foods. Check out that packaging – it looks like a little gift from the food gods!
Ingredients:
- 1 package Regal Kitchen Foods palak paneer
- 1 tablespoon ghee (or butter)
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1-inch piece ginger, peeled and grated
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1/4 teaspoon red chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 1/2 cup water
I know, I know – that’s a lot more ingredients than the first recipe. But believe me when I say it’s worth it.
To start, heat up the ghee or butter in a pan over medium heat. Once melted, add in the chopped onion and cook until soft and translucent (about 5 minutes). Then, add in the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook for an additional minute.
Next, add in the cumin seeds, coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Stir everything together for about 30 seconds, until the spices are fragrant.
Now it’s time to add in the palak paneer. Stir everything together so that the spices coat the spinach and paneer evenly. Then add in the water and bring everything to a simmer. Let it cook for about 5 minutes, until the sauce has thickened up a bit.
And that’s it, folks! Your delicious, homemade palak paneer is ready to be devoured. You can serve it with some warm naan bread or rice, or eat it straight out of the bowl (I won’t judge).
So the next time you’re in need of a quick and easy meal, give ready to eat palak paneer a try. Your taste buds (and stomach) will thank you.
