paneer


This is a paneer curry my mom makes in microwave. .I made it on stove top though.and it took me 15 minutes from start to finish.. went very well with ajwain paranthas.
I added gram flour, onion and carom seeds in wheat flour dough for the parathas and they came out awesome too.
Here is the recipe for the paneer curry in a hurry. It has lots of ginger which gives it a unique flavor.
