How to make spinach curry for a weeknight meal?

Quick palak-style curry with flexible ingredients

Start by sautéing onion, garlic, and ginger until softened. Add spices like cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala, then stir in chopped spinach. If using frozen spinach, thaw and squeeze out liquid first. Cook until spinach is fully wilted and flavors meld.

For a creamy finish, stir in plain yogurt, coconut milk, or blended cashews. Simmer briefly to integrate and season with salt and lemon juice to brighten.

Easy serving options:

• Serve over rice or with warm flatbreads.
• Add paneer cubes or chickpeas for protein.
• Top with toasted spices or a drizzle of ghee.

This dish is adaptable to pantry staples and comes together in 20–30 minutes, making it ideal for weeknight dinners.
