Best
buddies for Paneer Masala..
So
you have just made a piping hot paneer masala…..It goes well with parathas,
roti, naan, friedrice, pulav etc.
Some Good
Reviews..
- Paneer is a tasty product and it can be considered as a ‘chickensubstitute’ for the veggies.
- Preparation time is less than 30 minutes if executed with planning.
A
bit of Caution…
The quality of the paneer that we buy from market cannot be depended
fully and the curry may turn sour if the paneer is not good enough. So always
be careful in buying paneer made from
branded companies when you go to a
store.
Well
that’s all about my first dish…..I’ll be continuing with some exotic dishes
very soon…
