INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Blanching the spinach quickly cooks it while leaving the bright, attractive color intact. Once the water is boiling in a big saucepot, drop the spinach in and stir it once. After two minutes, remove it and drain off the boiling water. Add a tablespoon of salt to the water, like making pasta, for stronger flavored spinach. The timing here is important. Do not leave the spinach on for more than 3 minutes. This immediately removes the heat from the spinach, halting the cooking process to keep the spinach nice and green. Some people like a few chunks of spinach in their dish, while others want a completely smooth green curry. You can blend the spinach for as long as you want to get your desired consistency. If you didn't salt the water when blanching, add a pinch of salt now. Turn the stove on medium and plop in a tablespoon of ghee. Chop one large onion finely and get it cooking once the oil is hot. Add a pinch of salt as soon as the onions hit the pan, and stir occasionally to prevent burning. Add them to the onions shortly after they start cooking, then stir well to make sure everything is coated. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the raw smell is gone and the onions are starting to turn clear. Some recipes call for one can of crushed tomatoes, or freshly cut tomatoes, and some Indian chefs like to spice their curry with a few different flavors. If you want a simple, but still delicious curry, just move on. If you're a little more adventurous, now is the time to add the following ingredients. Cook for about a minute, stirring constantly. 1 12oz can crushed red tomatoes OR 1 cup chopped cherry tomatoes. 1 teaspoon dry fenugreek leaves (sold sometimes as "kasuri methi; highly recommended) 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper and/or cayenne 1/2 teaspoon turmeric and/or ground cumin 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamon Keep the heat on medium and add in your spinach mixture. The cream or milk will help cut some of the spice and lead to a richer, fuller dish, but you could also use coconut milk, water, or chicken stock for a lighter dish. The mixture should be brought to a light simmer, with small bubbles breaking the surface. This is the point where you should be sampling heavily. If it tastes great, leave it alone as it cooks. More likely than not, you'll want to play with the seasonings, and garam masala is highly recommended to get a subtle, rich, and restaurant-quality taste. The paneer just needs to get hot, and the dish is ready to serve. For an even tastier dish, fry the paneer cubes until the edges are golden brown in a separate dish, cooking them in a little bit of ghee or olive oil. Then toss them in the paneer for 2-3 minutes and serve!

SUMMARY: Clean the spinach, then drop it in boiling water for 2 minutes. As soon as the spinach comes off the heat, rinse it in cold water for 1 minute. Drain the water, then blend the spinach into a smooth puree. In a large saucepan, heat the ghee until melted and add the chopped onion. After 1-2 minutes, add 4-5 cloves minced garlic, 2-3 chopped green chilis, and 1 tablespoon finely minced ginger. Toss in any of your desired spices or tomatoes, if desired. Add the spinach puree, 3-4 tablespoons milk or heavy cream, and cook for 2 minutes. Add salt, pepper, and garam masala to taste. Add the paneer cubes and stir, cooking together for 2-3 minutes before serving.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Hold her hand, play with her hair, and kiss her spontaneously. You want to keep physical contact between you throughout your relationship. It's easy to take a partner for granted, especially when you've been together for a long time, but maintaining physical contact is very important for helping you create and keep a strong bond. It can feel kind of awkward, especially if you aren't used to doing it, but talking about your relationship is healthy and important. It's generally a great bonding activity to make plans for the future and discuss what you really love about each other. Talking about your relationship will give her a sense of stability that she might not be able to find with anyone else. Create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you both know that you can be honest with each other without being laughed or yelled at. Discuss and fix problems in your relationship before they become too big to solve. You can say something like, "You know how to make me laugh, even when I'm in a bad mood. I really love that quality about you, Ashley." Alternatively, if you have an issue, say something such as, "Jacqueline, I feel upset when you ignore my text messages. It makes me wonder if I've done something wrong. Have I?" She's going to have her own challenges to deal with, such as fights with friends, problems with her boss at work, and stress when she's got a ton of things to juggle. Never let her doubt that you know she can handle it like a boss. You know that she's strong and smart enough to conquer all of her problems, so tell her that. Say something like, "I'm sorry that you're dealing with Becca's drama. It sounds like you're in a tough spot. But that's one of the really great things about you: you are such a loyal friend and will stick by her no matter what." When you talk to each other, don't just skim the surface and keep your conversations to things like what you did that day. It's not enough to know her favorite color and her middle name. You need to talk about things that really delve into who you are as people. Doing so creates a deep and lasting bond. Ask questions like: "What do you want your future to be like?" "Why do you avoid your sister's calls?" "How does it feel to be the soccer captain?" Setting aside time to be a couple is crucial for your relationship, no matter how long you've been together. She needs to feel like you're really there for her and that means being present as much as you can. For instance, plan a date for just the two of you, rather than your usual group of friends. If you're living together, you can go to bed half an hour early so that you two have time to talk and be intimate.

SUMMARY:
Maintain physical contact. Talk about your relationship. Show her how much you believe in her. Ask the right questions. Make sure there's time for just the two of you.
