Grind the onion, garlic, and ginger into a fine paste. In a medium saucepan, combine the paste, spinach, yogurt, buttermilk, chile powder, and garam masala.

Sharon's Notes: I didn't bother to grind the onion, garlic and ginger into a paste. I sauteed them in a little oil before adding the spinach, etc. I also browned the paneer cubes in a little oil. I substituted whole milk for the half & half.
