Post-Op Soft Pureed Foods: Palak Paneer. Spinach with 10 gms Protein
I massively modified this recipe from http://www.amazon.co...ian slow cooker.
The original recipe calls for 2 lbs of spinach and makes so much a sleever would be eating it until they died. It's also waaaay too spicy in the original and hers is made in the crockpot. MUCH faster in pressure cooker.
Ingredients
1 lb fresh baby spinach
Peel where necessary and roughly chop:
-1 large yellow onion
-2 medium tomatoes
-5 cloves of garlic
-1 2 inch piece of ginger
-1 serrano or jalapeno chili
2 tablespoons ground cumin (grind in coffee grinder yourself or buy amongst mexican spices)
1 tsp or less cayenne pepper. Put less, you can add more later
2 tsp garam masala (can buy in most stores)
2 tsp turmeric
2 tsp Salt
1 packet fried or fresh paneer (indian grocery store, frozen section). I will also post recipe for homemade since this is good source of vegetarian high protein.
Directions
Pressure Cooker: If making in pressure cooker, dump all ingredients except paneer together and set to high pressure for 4 mins.
Crockpot: Cook on high for 3 hours. Push the spinach down once so all gets moist.
When done, use as immersion blender and mush everything up into either a very smooth puree, or leave some bits unchopped, per your diet stage.
Gently add paneer until mixed in. Serves 6
