If you have been following my blog, you would have noticed that I love the paneer recipes. Be it paneer tikka, kadai paneer, chilli paneer or other paneer dishes, I totally relish it. The day I make a paneer recipe, my mood is really good the entire day. Lol.. Now I have said that loud.
So if you are bored of making same kind of recipes, try this simple yet different tomato paneer recipe. There are always lots of making the paneer, but I guess this has to be one of the easiest and quickest recipe. I love the sheer ease of making the tomato paneer recipe. You can even try with tomato puree if you have that at home. I, however, don’t use the tomato puree much and prefer the fresh tomatoes.
So without much further delay, let’s get started with the tomato paneer recipe
Until next time,
