One of the most famous curry in India is Palak paneer. It is made with some fresh spinach and cottage cheese blended with spices. eating greens are extremely important to maintain a healthy living. Spinach is a good source of fiber and calcium. Paneer has its own health benefits. I love cooking with paneer and have shared many other recipes with it like kalakand – sweet made with paneer, Paneer pakora etc..
