3. One green chilli or to taste
4. Two teaspoons ginger garlic paste

3. Add the turmeric and the green chilli and stir fry for about two mintues
4. Add the tomato puree, ginger garlic paste and the spinach puree , give a good stir and partially cover the pan to avoid the splutters from messing up the gas stove and the area around.
5. Keep stirring in between and after five mintues , take off the cover and let the mixture cook well on medium flame for another five more minutes.
6. In the mean time stir fry the cottage cheese cubes in just two tablespoons of ghee in small batches.
