Use goat cheese instead of actual paneer. Wait for the palak to cool down before you add it though, or add it as you serve.

Where do you buy goat cheese or plain palak

Palak is just spinach, any spinach will do. Goat cheese should be in the fancy cheese section of your local grocery store, I buy mine from Publix but that doesn't exist in Kikefornia.

My recipe is basically just
- Put spinach in a blender with 1/4th cup water. You want to add a little at a timw until you have about 5 cups of blended spinach. Remember you want very little water.
- Add salt, pepper, cayenne pepper to taste, blend it in.
- 2 Serrano chilies, 1 whole onion, a small bulb of garlic and about 3 fingers worth of ginger, blend it in real good. You should have ~6 cups worth of palak mix now.
- cut 1 whole onion in half, then slice it thin. Heat up some oil in a pot, toss them in when it's hot. Brown that shit real good, where it's looking burnt on the edges.
- Pour in the palak carefully while shielding yourself with the pot lid so it doesn't pop in your face.
- Cook on high heat till it starts bubbling. Keep stirring so it doesn't burn, make sure you move all the material on the base and edges of the pot around.
- Once it starts bubbling, let it cook for another ~ 2 minutes while stirring. Then turn the heat to the lowest it will go, stir it around for a bit more to make sure all the material is agitated, then cover it and cook it for ~30 minutes.
- After 30 mins turn off the heat and let it cool. Basically goat cheese will melt easier than paneer so you don't want that. Add that either when it's cooled or you can put it while it's kinda hot but don't stir after that point, just ladle it out, or just put it on your plate and pour the palak over it.

I actually use more garlic and ginger personally but whiteys might not like it as much. Add to taste basically.
