SAAG PANEER, BUT WITH FETA RECIPE - BON APPéTIT



Saag Paneer, But With Feta Recipe - Bon Appétit image

Umami-charged asafetida is well worth seeking out at an Indian grocer or online—just a pinch of this pungent powder makes all the other spices come alive. Feta and spinach is an iconic combination, but mozzarella or even tofu cubes are also great here.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

¼ cup plus 2 Tbsp. ghee or extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp. coriander seeds
¼ tsp. ground cardamom
1 small onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 1½" piece ginger, peeled, chopped
1 lb. baby spinach (about 12 cups)
1 small Indian green chile or serrano chile, coarsely chopped
1½ tsp. fresh lime juice
Kosher salt
6 oz. feta, cut into 1" pieces
1 tsp. cumin seeds
¼ tsp. asafetida (optional)
¼ tsp. red chili powder
Roti or rice (for serving)

Steps:

  • Heat ¼ cup ghee in a large skillet over medium. Cook coriander seeds and cardamom, stirring constantly, until starting to brown, about 2 minutes. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Mix in garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add spinach by the handful, letting it wilt slightly after each addition before adding more. Cook until all of the spinach is just wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove pan from heat and add chile and lime juice; season with salt. Let cool 5 minutes.
  • Transfer spinach mixture to a blender (reserve skillet) and blend until a coarse paste forms, about 1 minute. Return spinach mixture to pan and set over low heat. Stir in ½ cup water, then gently fold in feta, being careful not to break up. Cook until feta is slightly softened and has absorbed some of the sauce, 5–7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 Tbsp. ghee in a small saucepan over medium-high, 1 minute. Add cumin seeds. As soon as cumin seeds start to pop, sputter, and brown, remove from heat, 1 minute tops. Immediately add asafetida, if using, and chili powder. Pour ghee mixture over spinach mixture. Serve with roti or rice.
  • Do Ahead: Spinach mixture (without spiced ghee mixture) can be made 1 day ahead. Let cool; cover and chill.
