Palak Paneer

The traditional Palak paneer is smooth green spinach sauce with fried cheese cubes in it.   In this recipe the main ingredients are the same, but made with slight variation.  I pack this for my kids lunch. I roll the palak paneer in a roti, like a wrap and seal the ends with egg wash, toast it on a pan on either sides of the wrap and cut in circles.  My kids enjoy it so much for its cheesy flavour.  Its a good way to get the kids to eat spinach.
