In Hindi, saag quite literally means “greens.” Fitting, as the base for this Indian staple comprises of spinach and fenugreek, along with soft pillows of fresh cheese curd known as paneer. Chef Meena brings in a bold kadai sauce made with crushed tomatoes, garam masala, and cream for a velvety finish. Complemented by cumin-spiced basmati rice, it’s a comforting balance of spice, richness, and warmth.
