What is the difference between Saag Paneer and Palak Paneer?
I know one of them means “Spinach”, doesn’t it?
Thanks for your help!

When the puree’ is made up of mustard leaves and paneer (cottage cheese) is added it is called saag paneer and when the puree’ is made up of spinach leaves and paneer is added it is called palak paneer. In Hindi spinach is called palak. Palak puree’ is bit watery as compare to saag puree’.

Thank you very much Veena! I love both dishes, but never knew the difference. I think I like Saag Paneer better of the two.
I wish I knew how to make either of them—Indian food always has soooo many ingredients that I don’t have at home. Mustard leaves, for instance, are not very popular at our grocery stores here in Canada.
