Paneer Pasand

Paneer is Indian cottage cheese prepared from milk. It is high protein food, it is often substituted for meat in many vegetarian entrees of Indian cuisine. When it comes to body building and muscle toning, paneer is a promising appendage to a diet regimen. However, the product definitely scores high in fat and cholesterol and it would be best to limit its intake especially for those with heart conditions, hypertension and - due to its lofty carb amount – diabetes.

Today my experimental dish is inspired from Paneer Kofta. I try to make a special paneer dish “Paneer Pasand” to go with puri or nun. It is quite sweet flavours and creamy textured gravy. It’s healthy, testy but not very rich. It’s very simple recipe and easy to cook.
