Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 Lg Onion
6 Cloves garlic
1 Oz Fresh ginger
1 Lb Frozen spinach, thawed
1 C Plain yogurt
4 Oz Buttermilk
2 Ts Red chili powder
2 Ts Garam masala
1 C Half and half
6 Oz Paneer, cubed
Salt to taste

Grind the onion, garlic, and ginger into a fine paste. In a medium
saucepan, combine the paste, spinach, yogurt, buttermilk, chili
powder, and garam masala. Simmer at medium heat for 20 to 30 minutes.
Mash the ingredients with a potato masher. Add the half and half. Simmer
until the mixture has a creamy consistency, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the
cheese, simmer 5 minutes. Season with salt. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
Sharon's Notes: I didn't bother to grind the onion, garlic & ginger
into a paste. I sauteed them in a little oil before adding the spinach,
etc. I also browned the paneer cubes in a little oil. I substituted
whole milk for the half & half.
