What is Palak Paneer Sabji?
Palak Paneer Sabji is a simple and nutritious dish made by sautéing spinach (palak) with crumbled paneer (Indian cottage cheese), onions, and spices. Unlike the traditional version with a rich gravy, this variation involves lightly sautéing the spinach and blending it with crumbled paneer for a more textured dish.
The result is a flavorful and healthy sabji that’s quick to prepare and perfect for serving with roti, bread, or even as a filling for sandwiches or rolls. This dish is a great way to enjoy the goodness of spinach and protein-rich paneer, with a light blend of spices for extra flavor.

Expert Tips
- Avoid Over-Sautéing:
Don't sauté the mixture for too long, as this can make the paneer turn hard.
- Tofu Option:
If you prefer a vegan option, replace paneer with tofu (soya paneer).
- Add Green Leaves:
You can also experiment by adding different types of green leafy vegetables to enhance the flavor and nutrition.
- Make Frankies:
Roll the prepared mixture inside a roti to make quick and tasty frankies for a fun meal.
- Grate the Paneer:
Instead of crumbling the paneer, use a grater to finely grate it for a smoother texture in the dish.
