Paneer masala can never go wrong. Cooked with peanuts and peas, this yummy paneer recipe tastes wonderful with roti or Paratha. This Paneer Recipe can be cooked in just 20 minutes. Other than crunchy peanuts and fresh peas, garam masala is used to cook this recipe. The flavour of garam masala makes the curry more tempting.
At our home, Tuesday and Saturday are veg days . We don’t eat onion, Garlic even on those days. Paneer is our saviour in those days.

I’d ask my sister to try this one. We just ordered this meal from The Yellow Chilli, it was really good, but I think my sister can challenge Chef Kapoor by using your recipe 😀
