Receta Paneer Pasanda
Paneer Pasanda Recipe as the name suggests is a delicious Paneer delicacy adored by everyone who tastes it. The different pastes that are used to make the Paneer Pasanda gravy add their own distinct flavors which combine together to create a finger licking good curry. The original recipe suggest to make round shaped tikki using grated paneer, flour and bread crumbs but I skipped that step and used plain paneer cubes instead of fritters.
