Saag paneer is a popular mild vegetarian dish made of Indian cheese and fresh greens (usually spinach) simmered gently in spices. It is a close cousin of palak paneer. Matthew Evans' saag paneer. (Alan Benson). This is my version of the Indian classic with saag meaning greens (and we usually have a variety), and paneer being the fresh 'cheese' that we make in.

- In a pan add 1/2 cup water and heat it. Wash and clean all the leafy vegetables in running water 2-3 times

- Remove leaves from hot water and add to bowl of chilled water. This process will help retain the green colour of the vegetable

Felicity Cloake: It's a classic vegetarian Indian restaurant dish that's quick and easy to make. But do you like yours wet or dry? And is frozen spinach ever acceptable?
