Chop the paneer cheese. Peel and very finely chop the brown onion. Peel and crush the garlic. Finely chop the green chilli. Boil the water and dissolve the vegetable stock cube in it.
Add the basmati rice, measured water and salt to a pan with a lid and bring to a boil over a high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 10-12 min or until the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked. Remove the pan from the heat and keep covered until serving. Fluff with a fork before serving.
Heat a pan over a medium heat. Add the ghee and onion and fry for 5-6 min until softened. Add the chopped garlic, green chilli (spicy!), ginger paste, cumin and garam masala and chilli powder (spicy!). Cook for 1 min until fragrant. Add the vegetable stock, tomato passata, honey and cooking cream and simmer for 10 min until thickened.
Meanwhile, boil a pan of water and blanch the spinach in it for 1 min only, drain immediately. Once cool enough to handle, squeeze any excess liquid out of the spinach. (See pro tip!)
Heat a second non-stick pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the paneer cubes with a pinch of salt and fry on all sides for a total of 5-7 min until nicely browned and starting to crisp.
Meanwhile, add the simmered sauce and the drained spinach to a food processor and blitz everything for 2-3 min or until smooth. Serve the fried paneer in the sauce over the basmati rice. Slice the lime into wedges and use it as garnish.
Leave the green chilli out if you can't handle the heat.
Add the blanched spinach to a bowl of iced water to preserve its vibrant green colour.
