Palak Paneer (leave Indian cooking to Indians)


Ethnic cooking is extremely difficult if you don't really know what the dish is supposed to taste like. Sure I can follow the recipe, but in order to become a good cook, you gotta have that "sixth sense" that tells you to add a little bit more of this or that. I have never been a fan of palak paneer, mostly because of its appearance. But it's probably one of the most popular Indian dishes known even to the non-Indians. So I decided to give it a try.

FAIL.

I'm not sure if it's because I didn't puree the spinach long enough or pour enough heavy cream. I just did. not. like. it. at. all.

wak.

So I've decided to leave Indian cooking to the experts (for now).
