Saag Tofu "Paneer"
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Saag paneer is an Indian dish that classically includes creamy leafy greens with cubed paneer, an Indian cottage cheese made from cow or buffalo milk. If you’re looking for vegan swaps, this vegan saag “paneer” is for you. It includes the creaminess and cubed curds – but the plant-based varieties! Trade paneer with extra firm tofu cubes, and ghee and cream with a homemade cashew milk. The aromatic flavors stay familiar and your belly is sure to be filled.
