Some Indian spinach recipes that we love are Chana Palak, Keerai, Palak Rice, and Mushroom Spinach Pasta Salad. Butter - Salted or unsalted butter can be used. Milk - Full-fat milk will give the sauce a thick and creamy texture. But you can also use low-fat, or fat-free milk. Spinach - Fresh or frozen spinach can be used. I have used baby spinach in this appetizer recipe. Paneer - Use homemade or store-bought full-fat or low-fat paneer. Paneer is available in Indian grocery stores in the frozen aisle. Costco and Whole foods also carry paneer. Spices - dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes are the basic spices that you will need. Puff pastry sheets - You can make them at home or buy Pepperidge Farm from the store. If buying, then check the packet before buying. It should not contain eggs if you are following a vegetarian lifestyle. Instead of sheets, you can also use pre-cut dough squares to save time. Cheese - Mozzarella cheese works in this recipe. You can also add a mix of cheese.
This Indian spinach recipe is a great finger food that can also be made for potlucks, weekend parties, brunches, game nights, picnics, special days, or any occasion where you feel like celebrating. To get the golden color on the puff pastry, mix ¼ cup milk with a teaspoon of sugar and use this liquid like an egg wash. If doing this, you don’t need to cooking spray. Instead of preparing the sauce, you can also use ricotta cheese or feta cheese along with the spices to make this spinach puff pastry. Like this recipe?
