This curried spinach dish features paneer, an Indian cheese available
in Indian or ethnic supermarkets. Substitute cubes of firm tofu or 1
cup of green peas if paneer is unavailable.

Heat oil for deep frying. Fry cheese cubes until golden brown. Drain
on paper towels. Saute onions in a saucepan or wok with 3 tablespoons
of the oil. "Splutter fry" garlic, garam masala, ginger and chili
powder. Add spinach and tomatoes. If using green peas, mix in here.
Lower heat and cook 20-30 minutes; until spinach cooks down into a
pastalike consistency. Raise heat and "fimmer" until the oil floats
to the top. Add the cheese or tofu. Heat and serve. Serve 2 as a main
dish, 4 if served with other dishes.
