Methi palak paneer with mixed veg

This is my new try for the first time .I had home made paneer so wanted to make some thing different , healthy , tasty and easy to digest . Tried this and turned out so tasty that kids loved too. One thing I should say palak taste is not dominating and i can feel cream and methi combined taste along with paneer carrots and aloo makes this dish flavoursome and mouth watering 

Ingredients I used 

Palak - 2bunches
Methi leaves - 1 bunch
Carrots - 3 medium
Potatoes - 2 medium
Paneer - 250gms
Onion - 1large
Tomatoes - 3

Kasoori methi - 1.2 tbs
Dhaniya jeera powder - 1tbs 
Garam Masala - 1 to 1.5 tbs 
Ginger garlic paste - 1tbs
Oil  - 3tbs

Firstly rince greens to remove dirt  , now take a glass of water in a wide bowl and let boil now add palak to boiling water and when u notice that palak is reduced remove and let palak cool and transfer in to a blender aling with green chilli and coriander leaves now make in to a fine paste and keep a side. Remove leaves from stems of methi rince chop and keep this also a side
