Quickie Saag

Start by squeezing out water from spinach. Set aside.

In a medium non-stick saute pan, heat oil over medium heat until it shimmers. Add garlic and mix for a second or two. Add onion and mustard and saute for a minute or two. Don’t let the garlic burn. Add paneer cubes, cayenne, nutmeg, kosher salt, and a little black pepper, frying for a few minutes to get a little color on the cheese. Add the spinach and water and bring to a boil. Cover the pan and cook over low heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

I like mine with cumin-scented rice. It is sooo good.
