Paneer is my first love. Paneer should be not mistaken for cottage cheese. Paneer is made out of milk while cottage cheese contains some heavy whipping cream, also paneer isn’t salted, so be very generous with the salt that you include for this recipe. For this recipe, I used the store bought paneer for this recipe instead of making it at home, but in the near future I’ll post a recipe and teach you how to make the perfect paneer at home.
The spices of this recipe are excellent but you have to follow the quantity exactly how it’s written. The mixture of anardana and amchur powder really influence the taste towards the tangy side without the use of lemon. I can’t stress this enough that this recipe is all about blending the right amount of spices. This is also one of the few recipes where ginger garlic paste is not used.
Paneer mixture can be made in advance. It’s good in the fridge for couple days, I haven’t tried freezing it. You don’t have to reheat again if you take out the mixture from the fridge, just put it on the bread and the griddle will do all the work. Make sure you don’t apply a lot of chutney to the slices. Lastly, always cut the diagonally with the scissors after you’re done with using the griddle. I hope you give this recipe a try.
