    Loved this recipe, really easy to do and tasty. I simmered longer than 5-7 minutes as it was a bit watery so more like 10-15 but that might be a preference thing. My green chillies were pretty hot along with the ginger so had a nice kick.

    Needed plenty of salt at the end but really good and easy to make. Very mild. Jalapeño worked nicely (could have used more than 1) and ended up topping with crispy shallots.

    I've cooked this recipe this week, as we are big fans of Palak Paneer and we wanted to try it with the chickpea twist on it. I feel like the chickpea doesn't really add anything new to the blended sauce. It's nice for textures for the ones left whole, but not really needed. Maybe if these were roasted in cumin and added at the end for crunch instead? I've found this was too wattery too. I added less water than the recipee required and it was still too much, especially if you only simmer it for 5-7 mins. I've replaced the Paneer for tofu and mixed it in after roasting/drying it out, which soaked some of the liquid, so that was a bit helpful. Flavours were a bit bland too, the spices are not enough for the quantities mentioned. Garam masala is not enough on its own to lift this meal. Not a complete disaster, but it didn't impress us.
