Ingredients
  

  • 12 ounces Paneer Diced in bite size cubes
  • 5 Cups Fresh Baby Spinach
  • 1 Carrot Diced in bite size cubes
  • 2 Bell Peppers Diced in bite size cubes
  • 1 Cup Butternut Squash Diced in bite size cubes
  • 1 Can Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes
  • 1 Tablespoon Ginger Minced
  • 1 Tablespoon Garlic Minced
  • 1 Tablespoon Garam Masala Curry Powder
  • 1 Teaspoon Cumin Powder
  • 1 Teaspoon Turmeric Powder
  • 3 Bird's Peak Chili or red pepper flakes
  • ½ Medium Onion
  • 1 Tablespoon Ghee Clarified Butter
  • 1 Medium Yellow Squash Diced in bite size cubes
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Dice paneer in bite size pieces, add salt, ghee and a teaspoon of the Garam Masala. Mix, cover and set aside.
  • In a large pan, sauté onions, dried chilies, garlic and ginger with ghee.
  • Once the onions start getting golden, add the rest of the spices. Sauté for a few minutes and add the drained diced fire roasted tomatoes.
  • Cover and let the sauce cook for a few minutes while working on the paneer.
  • In another small pan, sear the paneer on both sides. They are ready when they develop an golden crust. Do not over cook.
  • Remove paneer from pan and set aside.
  • Add the diced vegetables to the tomato sauce. It will be dry, but the vegetables will release their juices. Combine well and cover to cook for 5minutes.
  • Once vegetables are cooked in the sauce, add seared paneer and combine well.
  • Add fresh baby spinach on top, cover and turn the heat to low. The steam will cook the spinach.
  • It is ready when the spinach is wilted, but remains with a bright green color.
  • Mix well and serve immediately.
