I am a great fan of Late Tarla dalal madam.While I was searching for new paneer gravy dish recipe on her website I came across this Paneer makhmali recipe.I tried this recipe for the first time and fell in love with it. What’s best about this recipe is that it doesn't call for any fancy ingredients, it is super easy to prepare and tastes wow.
Even
there is no use of heavy milk cream in this dish unlike other paneer
preparations which makes this dish healthy too.This
aromatic dish gets its characteristic green color and fresh flavor from a
marinade of coriander,mint and green chilies. The addition of cashews and
curds to the marinade imparts a rich flavor and creamy texture to the paneer,
giving this dish a luxurious feel.
