First Attempt at Indian Food - Palak Paneer

So. Much. Spinach!  With getting a giant bag of spinach I knew I needed to find a recipe that would cook it all down. I decided to take a stab at making my favorite Indian dish, Palak Paneer.  For anyone who hasn't had it, palak is a spinach curry sauce which covers rice and paneer, a soft Indian cheese.  Paneer is supposed to be very easy to make but since this was a weekday meal for us, I opted to buying the paneer from Whole Foods.  The palak sauce turned out with the perfect amount of spice but I will say I felt it was missing some depth and salt.  I don't blame the recipe for it.  I think it is really due to me taking some shortcuts like using butter instead of ghee. I will definitely attempt this recipe again but may need to make a couple tweaks to perfect it.
