I just made this exactly as instructed except omitting the salt. I'm making for my daughter with kidney disease. I prob could've thrown in a celery stick but it tastes great like it is. Thank you!
Thx Wil 4 your sensational recipe 😉👍
I would love to give you a challenge my friend, a lot of us people who have had to work in our home since last year may soon be going back to the workplace. And the challenge for me is to cook and carry in the same fresh healthy foods that I have been able to enjoy in my 8-hour work days at home via my own cooking. I have gone out to eat twice in the last 2 weeks and I found that the food in restaurants it's terrible and didn't taste healthy or for flavor. I need to be able to take snacks and a lunch with me and some days even breakfast and a dinner because we work a lot of hours and I bet that other people need this as well. I'm just putting this little idea in your head... Because you are the most clever of people and this is something that you could do in videos or make a whole cookbook out of.--- 'Wil Yeung's way of Healthy Portable lunches!!'
Challenge given, Sir.👍🎵💡
@@trinitywright7122 why not go 80% raw? Check out fully raw Kristina and many others on making your own salad dressings which is where the secret to raw living is. I'm bringing such a meal to work with me in a few mins. The more nutrient dense your food is, the less you eat. Mono meals are also easy. Also intermittent fasting. I don't see food being a challenge for me at all. Well to be fair I have a great Amish produce market and also a great Mexican farmers market close by.
Love that Wil makes different meals from all over the world!
Me too
I cannot tell u how much u hv improved in ur Indian dish cooking. U really hv noted all the various suggestions, adopted n improvised on them. This dish is so much near the original recipe. Love n appreciate ur effort n dedication. Absolutely commendable. Thank you.
🤗
What a lovely compliment.
This is one of my favorite dishes. I love Indian food so much I could eat it everyday for the rest of my life
A much easier way is to blank/purée the spinach first, then add that to the spices :)
@@YEUNGMANCOOKING Yes, as an Indian I really admire your efforts to authentically veganize our recipes and make them cruelty-free. 🌿
Try adding whole cardamom , cinnamon sticks and bay leaf initially along with cumin and coriander. You can fish them out before blending.
As an Indian, I love this idea. Thanks for bringing our food to the vegan world. God bless you.
🙌🏻
The key reason of the exotic flavour is the garam masala which is already made up of 10- 12 different spices, then ginger garlic onion that gives it a little kick , sourness of tomatoes, with spinach smooth flavour creating the base of neutral paneer or tofu gives it a unique, classy yet rustic flavour. One of my favourite too.
Took a recipe of ramen probably a year ago (or two) and didn't see more videos, but in the few moths I'm addicted to your channel, thanks for sharing and these recipes. It's helping me a lot in this quarentine
🙌🏻🥳👨🏻🍳
I made this with absolute confidence tonight and it was so creamy and delicious (despite my coriander seeds being old enough to collect Social Security). It was so flavorful I couldn't wait for the rice to finish cooking before I ate half of it!
😂 At the coriander joke
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 coriander collecting social security.. oh my God, that's hysterical 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Terika- You wouldn't be laughing if you bit one of those babies! I was worried I cracked a crown, so I gave them a burial at sea.
I have cardamom powder in my cabinet from 2017 that I STILL use! No worries, dry spices last basically for years if you store it well.
Perfect timing! Tofu and spinach in the fridge, and I'm craving Indian food. Thanks, Wil!
🥳🥳🥳
It’s actually Pakistani food
pakistan born out of india.
india got freedom, pakistan got birth.
so there is no pakistani element .
everything pakistan use is from india even urdu( your official language)@@NN-fz4pd
Bro its Indian @@NN-fz4pd
This guy is amazing... I really like the way so simple that he cooks everything! Now I can cook with "absolut confidence" that kind of food that seemed impossible before.
Once again this recipe did not disappoint. One of my favorite Indian dishes, (in my pre-vegan days I used to make the paneer from scratch). I have 4 or 5 recipes from my time in India, which are all good, but this one is going to be my go to from now on. So simple, so flavourful so completely yummy and satisfying. Thank you!
Hi from an Indian girl named Palak 😂💜
Haha! Nice name Palak but this recipe should be called paalak rather than palak, isn’t it?😂
@@anjnag6965 yea haha he even pronounced it palak instead of paalak. Roman script doesn't do justice to our vowels.
Fantastic! Will you make more Indian dishes soon?
@@PaLuck and paalak is nice with paneer only, (a match made in heaven) not with tofu.
Does that mean that your name means spinach?
Saw this and had to make it straight away. We love it. Smiles all round the table. Thank you for a wonderful recipe. Huge thumbs up! 👍
Lay Ho Ma! You just made one of my favorite dishes🌟and everything you said to describe the flavors is the reason why. I have yet to make this one myself, however, spinach has been one of my favorite veggies since I was a kid and eat it regularly. I believe I can now cook this one with confidence 🌟My brother whom I haven’t seen in 17 years is visiting in a few days, and we often share what we cook and enjoy eating via phone and text, and now in planning meals for his visit I’ve now added another one! Thank you, Wil ⭐️
🙌🏻🥳👨🏻🍳 How amazing and what wonderful news! Enjoy 🤗
Is there a substitute for spinach as I have problems with Oxalates ? This looks fantastic-
I love how sharp your knife is. It’s so satisfying watching you slice through all those veggies with ease! I can’t wait to try this recipe.
I made this same dish just to include tofu in my diet Indian style. I am an indian, we use paneer with palak or chickpeas. Thanks Will for cooking an Indian recipe. You have my heart 💗
I made this tonight and used Coconut Milk instead because that is all I had and it was a 10!!!! VERY excited to have this recipe! Thank you Will!
Love this! Thank you Will for inspiring us every day!
You got me with this one, Wil. I ordered the book.
I will when I get to the nearest bookstore
Just love the way your cooking is so relaxing and calming to watch, but also so inspiring at the same time. Thank you!
Just made this! It was fantastic! Anyone short on a tomato can do about a tbs of tomato paste. FANTASTIC.
Thanks for making this! Looks amazing!
You make the BEST cooking tutorials EVER!!! Thank you so much for your videos! Have a great day and thank you for brightening ours!
Wow! There is not one ingredient in this awesome healthy and delicious dish that I cannot eat plus it has such healthy, easily obtained ingredients PLUS your wonderful video recipe instructions 🏆👍👍🏆Thank you so much Wil 😀 💖
There I was writing my shopping list thinking about what recipes I want to try out this week and BAM Wil's posted this. I loved paneer but for obvious reasons haven't had it for a while. My dreams have come true, and all I need to buy is an extra bag of spinach and some coconut cream!
Rainbow plant life take superfirm tofu and boils it for about a minute -- the texture is very close to paneer!
🥳🥳🥳
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!... Can’t wait to make this!
🙌🏻
Omg this is the best cooking channel ever! So incredibly inspiring, high diversity of meals, all plant-based, delicious... But I always get hungry watching this 😂💚 Love you, Will!
Such a vibrant green colour!
I made this for dinner tonight and it was SO much better than what local Indian restaurants can prepare. MANY THANKS! 🙏🏻
Looks so delicious Wil. Would like to reveal one of my secrets on your channel (not traditional though but my inclusion). I like to add a handful of coriander leaves while blending everything. It gives an incredibly delicious flavor to the dish. Do try it once if you like coriander leaves. Thanks for sharing a dish from India. Take care🙏🏾
Dry coriander leaves? Where can I buy them?
Where you can get fresh coriander leaves ?
@@reginaboston3841 coriander leaves are sold as cilantro.
Elegant, beautiful video - thank you! One of my favorite dishes as well.
I just made this today for my family and it turned out absolutely delicious!!! This is coming from someone that is Indian :) Thank You!
This was sooo delicious! Thanks again, Wil, for this awesome recipe. You rule!
Love how simple the recipe is. 🙏
Yay!! Thanks for sharing this. I make this for meal prep for lunches like at LEAST 1 week every month. It is sooo good!!
I don't know how anyone could thumbs down on this awesome recipe.
Thank you Yeung, it's like you read my mind, I was just thinking about how to make vegan paneer, now I can make this with confident thanks to you:)
🙌🏻🥳👨🏻🍳
One of the best ever videos on vegan cooking I have ever seen. Thank you, thank you,thank you.
🙌🏻
Looks absolutely delicious!! Can't wait to make it, thank you.
Looks amazing 🤤! Thank you Will for sharing this master piece🙏🏼
The recipe is incredible! Thank you so much for shering this version! It's perfect! Thank you!
I've just made this tonight and it was amazing! I love your recipes, they are so clear to follow and never fail in flavour. I did steam half the tofu, over the rice, as I read it firms it up like the cheese paneer, and I put the other half in fresh. The steamed tofu does give a firmer texture, but both lovely. Love tofu anyway. Great dish. Thank you.
Missed your recipes, glad you've returned!
Absolutely love this, can't wait to make it. I love spinach. Such as beautiful colour to the dish. Nom nom nom 😋
Thank you. This is my one of my favorite Indian dishes and I love trying different variations! Will have to try this
This is on my list to make. Thanks!
One thing I'm doing lately is recipes that call for turmeric, I add ground black pepper, and those that call for black pepper, I add a little turmeric. That combination is really great for your health and a little turmeric doesn't change the flavor in most dishes, and sometimes adds a nice yellow color.
That is true! But turmeric is also absorbed well with just about any sort of fat. You don't need black pepper with your turmeric unless you're drinking it with a cup of water alone :)
Can't wait to try this. I need more tofu recipes. Thanks again, Wil.
Just wanted to say how this looks better than my mom’s palak paneer! And i grew up eating this. It’s my favorite dish
Can't wait til try!
Can't wait to try this. Yummy
I am pure veg. so "food recipe like this" is God send.
I had this last night and it was absolutely gorgeous! Looking forward to having the rest today as a packed lunch .
Yum yum yum
not only has every single one of your recipes (online and in your cookbooks) that I've made been chock full of flavour, but they're easy to do. Thank you.
So glad to hear you are enjoying 🙌🏻🥳
I'm part-time vegan and I love palak paneer, so can't wait to try this recipe out!
This is so famous dish in india ..this basically cooked in winter season in India ... this so delicious and nutritious ...❤❤
Thank you so very much for this video! I made this tonight and it was so incredibly delicious. I am not a cook at all and this is the first time I've ever made a dish that tasted as good as one that I would be served in a restaurant. I am especially grateful for your instruction on how many minutes to saute and blend. For someone who is a total novice, this is what motivated me to give this recipe a try and it made all the difference. Massive amounts of appreciation, Wil!
Ahhh! So happy that you enjoyed this recipe 🙌🏻 Keep well and happy cooking 🥳🥳🥳
Just made it and it's fantastic! Your recipes have become a staple in our house. Thanks for the wonderful content and recipes!!!
I just made this for my boyfriend and he said it was delicious and thanked me several times ☺️ One slight modification I made was adding a blended-up avocado to the coconut cream so that there would be more protein.
I adore this recipe😋thank you!!
making this for a second time tonight... word to the wise for those of you living in hot climates, don't let it set out too long on the counter / in the pan when you're done cooking it! the coconut milk and/or (?) raw tofu can spoil quickly. we learned that the hard way... but at least we got to have two fresh n tasty portions right when we were done whipping it up!! and now, we have a great excuse for making a second batch. LOVE IT!
Just made this for tomorrow's dinner so that the tofu can soak up the flavor and I don't have to cook if I don't want to. This is delicious! Very quick and easy recipe.
I made palak tofu once from a written recipe online and it was a disaster! It completely turned me off to trying to make it again. But being able to watch you cook it step by step and knowing that your recipe would turn out so well makes me want to try it again. Thank you!
Looks so yummy
Fantastic meal!!! Thank you!
Made this today and it tasted like heaven on earth! Thanks Wil!
🙌🏻😎 great to hear you are enjoying
Amazing!!! Cooking an Indian dish. Lovely!
Made this today. Can't use coconut cream so I used oat cream instead, and that worked as well. Absolutely delicious!
You can skip cream if you want
Palak paneer is one of my favorite dishes. One year for my birthday many years ago I made the garam masala from scratch (and the cheese from local raw milk). It took all day but it was the best I’d ever had! Found a cheese and tofu substitute I love and a good organic garam masala spice brand. Happen to have most of the right ingredients on hand right now and came across your video. Such a delicious way to eat spinach. Warm and nourishing. Thanks for sharing!
I like the idea of preparing the curry and then blending it!
Yummy 😋 and easy. Going to try!
Only 1:17 in and seeing the cooking w.such calming music idky but it makes me want to cry im already in love w.ur vids
I made this for the first time and was my first time making one of your recipes. I didn't have any cumin or coriander seeds so i just used the powdered version and added tons more garlic. I'm happy to add this to my tiny but growing list of dishes to freeze and reheat later! thank you so much!
An update, will have to tweak the recipe. Ate it for lunch and was underwhelming bland, even with the extra everything. Still thanks though!
This is one of my all time favorite dishes, I'm going to try your version soon. Might add fresh coriander stems with the spinach. Great channel.
This is the ONE dish I was so waiting to get vegoniezed !!! What I did is I also soaked tofu in the nutritional yeast and some garlic to give it more cheese taste . Came out so good ! The spinach sauce is the key just to get it right ! Thank you for this amazing receipe !!
That's a great idea. I'm gonna try doing that. Did you just soak or then cook the tofu in the nutritional yeast?
Thanks for sharing. I looove this Indian dish!
Looks delicious
Another winner!! Thanks for your beautiful videos : )
Made this recipe for dinner last night. Amazing! Everyone in the house loved it. So much flavor! Thanks, Yeung Man!!
Looks amazing
Easy to cook and delicious 👌🏻 Thank you !
Indian Dish wow!
Will, I just made this for dinner and my hubby couldn't stop giving me compliments! This was soooo good! I can't believe how delicious it turned out 😋 Thank you for sharing this amazing recipe 😊🤗🙏
Looks so easy and delicious
I love this dish, been making Palak with tofu for years, and will definitely try your take on it very soon. I admire those knife skills, btw!
cant wait to make this!!!!!! looks so amazing!!!
Looks appetising and so simple to make.Thank you.
My husband and I made this tonight. It was so good (and easy)!! The best Indian food I have ever made. Thank you!!
Great to hear 🙌🏻🥳
I tried this and as an Indian, I thought this dish was absolutely awesome! You did a great job on this recipe! My husband loved it too. So tasty yet simple flavors. Thank you 🙏🏽 The place I’m from we don’t traditionally use or prefer paneer in our cooking so the tofu was the perfect light and flavorful alternative (I roasted it separately before putting it in) 😃
🥳🥳🥳
Thank you for sharing your recipes. I've tried 2 so far, including this one, and I can definitely say I can make them with confidence! This was one of the most flavorful dishes I've ever made from a recipe. Thank you.
I made this tonight for the family. My five year old was scraping the pan to get ALL the curry. 10/10
Everything you make looks amazing! I love watching you cook. Thank you for another great video!
🙌🏻
What a great recipie
Beautiful & power-packed dish...
This dish is incredibly delicious and absolutely incomparable to the frozen dinner versions, which I thought were pretty great! Now I’m spoiled forever but it’s so easy to make! Footnote: even a very mild version of this (for someone who has sensitivities) is still sumptuous! Thank you!
🙌🏻👨🏻🍳
Can’t wait to make this dish. Thanks Wil!!
This receipt seems really fantastic and easy to find ingredients here in Italy too. Thank you!
I'm making this today, thank you. I love all of your videos
This is awesome!!!! I'm so gonna make it this weekend. I love greens so much! Thank you 💚💚💚
This looks yummy-licious. I will try it. Thanks for sharing.
A hundred years from now, people will still be appreciating your great recipes.
Wow! What a wonderful compliment ☺️
Looks fabulous.
