Palak paneer, attempt 4

by Don  

I'm continuing my experiments with palak paneer; this time I didn't do so well. Here is what I did this time. If this is your first time trying the recipe, use the experiment 2 link.

Ingredients

12 oz frozen chopped spinach
2-3 tbsp of neutral tasting oil
1 tbsp of ground cumin (better version is 1 tsp)
10 cloves of garlic, chopped (I forgot the garlic)
1 serrano, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tsp ground coriander (I didnt' have a tbsp, which would have been better)
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
regular salt to taste (I forgot the salt)
1 cup of yogurt (I forgot the yogurt and used Half & Half instead)
10 oz of queso panela
1 lemon (I forgot the lemon)

Method

Boil a big pot of water. Put the spinach in. Once it starts boiling again, boil the spinach for three minutes. Drain. Put the spinach in the blender with 1/2 cup of half & half. Make a paste.

Heat the oil. Add the onions and serranos. Cook until the onions are translucent. Add spices and 1/2 cup of half & half. Mix. Cook until somewhat thickened. Add the spinach puree. Simmer a bit. Add the cheese, then serve once it is all warmed.

Result

This turned out adequately. Next time around I should actually read the recipe instead of trying to simply remember it.
