Nutritional tips

  • Explore adding tofu instead of paneer
    You can also enjoy this delicious curry by replacing paneer with tofu, which has lower fat content as compared to paneer. You can also skip using oil and simply cook the dish in MAGGI Bhuna Masala Gravy in a non-stick pan.

    Make it with a twist
Palak Paneer is one of those dishes that can even turn a boring weekday meal into something to look forward to, especially if you love paneer! Chunks of soft cottage cheese, simmered in a mildly spiced, creamy spinach puree, offers a great balance of taste and texture. This nutritious dish is also one of the best ways to make kids eat their share of leafy greens without a fuss!

We moved to a new society recently and we thought of inviting our neighbours over. My husband recommended that I try making palak paneer for dinner. I love MAGGI Masala-ae-Magic and I add it to most of the dinner recipes that I make. So out of habit, I added MAGGI Masala-ae-Magic to Palak Paneer too. The taste was totally unexpected, and it did bring in an amazing deal on the table that night. I can assure, all the plates on dinner table seemed satisfied and empty.
