Palak Paneer
Unlike these days, Spinach were only available in the winters in Odisha, India. So the cold season was very much of prized time, where the colorful vegetables made a way to our family’s plate. Like the vegetables, the dishes made out of them were very grand and were served with lots of love and care. Furthermore, the seasonal food habits of my childhood play so much memory during winters that I unintentionally try to recreate them. However, time has changed, the huge cold storages have somewhat played the trick in making veggies available round the year. But the memory and the vibes of the season to the family food tradition are something that’s untouched. One such special dish is “Palak Paneer”.
Being an Odia, Palak Paneer is not very kin to my family, however work and relocation have also influenced my choice. Palak Paneer is very native dish to North India and all the Indian veggie lover always treasure to keep this as a side. It’s creamy, delicate, spiced and no wonder loaded with loads of nutrition. It goes great with chapatis or parathas.
