Plating & presentation

Serve in a wide bowl with the vibrant green sauce as the backdrop for the golden paneer cubes. A swirl of cream and a pinch of garam masala on top adds visual contrast.

Dana's tip

The ice bath after blanching is essential for keeping the spinach a vivid, appetising green. Without it, the purée turns a dull khaki colour.
