Karahi Paneer


Except Paneer I didn't have anything at my home so planned to cook an authentic Paneer dish. Among all other Paneer preparation KARAHI PANEER is one of the famous North Indian dish. Especially in Dhaba, KARAHI PANEER is very popular. While making veg dinner my always first choice is KARAHI PANEER. I love the colorful pepper and the white paneer’s combination. 



KARAHI PANEER is made with lots of fresh bell pepper which gives the dish a nice look. The recipe is really easy but after having the dish you will get the restaurant flavor. My motto is to cook the authentic recipes but the steps should be easy to understand and especially for those who don’t have enough time for cooking.
