Palak Paneer


I learnt cooking very late in my life, and one of the first few dishes i learnt was this palak paneer as my sister is very fond of this dish. She could finish an entire box of palak paneer... And to see her enjoy this dish was a delight to all of us. When i learnt it and cooked it for her...  I still can remember the happiness on her face.
Hope all of you will enjoy this dish as much as we did.
