Saag Paneer with Chapati

Curry night, so I decided to try something vegetarian using Paneer, an Indian style cheese. Found several recipes but settled on one that uses spinach as well. Then to keep things real.... I needed to make an Indian flat bread from srcatch rather than settle for store bought. So Chapatis.

The paneer was marinated in oil infused with turmeric, cumin, garlic and chilies till it turned golden in colour, then fried till crispy. Finely chopped spinach and yogurt was added to complete the dish.

I have made chapatis before but that would be 30 + years ago, so I had to learn how to do this all over again. Quite easy actually, and turned out to be a hit.
