Serving

2 (5 oz) bags baby spinach
1 large onion
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground cardamom
1 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp chopped garlic
1/2 cup chopped tomato
3 tbsp plain yogurt
1 tbsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp garam masala
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp salt
8 oz paneer cheese , cut into cubes
1/4 cup heavy cream

Cut spinach into shreds and cook in 3 tablespoons water until tender; remove from heat.
Saute onion, cinnamon, cardamom, and ginger in 1-2 tablespoons ghee or oil until onion is translucent.
Then add garlic and chopped tomatoes, and reduce heat.
Cook this briefly and slowly blend in yogurt a little at a time to prevent curdling.

Add cooked spinach with liquid, cover and simmer on low heat for approximately 20-30 minutes.
Remove from heat.
Take half of spinach mixture and puree in food processor or blender, and return to mixture and stir.
