Stilton Saag Paneer

Inspired by a Saag Paneer Recipe, I incorporate my favourite cheese inspired by a local village to me called Stilton!

Ingredients (serves 1-2 people)

250g. Baby Spinach, washed

1 tbsp. Vegetable Oil

1 tsp. Cumin Seeds

1 Medium Onion, chopped

1 ½ tbsp. Fresh Ginger, minced

1½ tbsp. Garlic, minced

1 Green Chilli, chopped

1 tsp. Ground Coriander

½ tsp. Turmeric

200g Stilton Cheese, Grated

2-3 tbsp. Cream/Cream Cheese

½ tsp Garam Masala

½-1 tsp Lemon Juice, or to taste

Salt, to taste

Method

Blanch the spinach for 3 minutes, drain, and puree in a food processor.
In a skillet (or pan), heat the oil, and fry up the cumin seeds for 2-3 minutes until lightly toasted. Add the onion, garlic, ginger and green chilli until the onions soften (3-4 minutes).
Mix the coriander and turmeric into the pan and leave for a further 2 minutes. Add your pureed spinach into the pan, alongside the grated stilton cheese, cream/cream cheese and the garam masala. Bring the pan to the boil, then cover and leave to simmer on a lower heat for 10 minutes.
Season with lemon Juice and Salt to your taste and leave to simmer for a further 5-10 minutes.
Serve as a curry by itself just for you, or as an accompaniment to another curry you are choosing to serve up!
