Paneer Bhurji

Paneer Bhurji

This is the simplest and yummiest curry perfect for parties or just for home.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Paneer, cubed (I used store-bought paneer)
  • ½ cup diced Tomatoes
  • ¼ cup chopped Onions
  • 3 or 4 Green Chilies, chopped
  • 1 tsp Ginger – Garlic Paste
  • ½ tsp Garam Masala
  • A pinch of Turmeric Powder
  • Few chopped Cilantro leaves
  • Few Curry Leaves
  • 1 tsp Oil
  • ½ tsp Mustard Seeds
  • ¼ tsp Cumin Seeds

Preparation:

  1. Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds. When they pop, add cumin seeds along with onions + tomatoes + green chilies + curry leaves and mix well.
  2. To this, add turmeric + ginger-garlic paste + garam masala and mix well. Sauté well until the onions become translucent.
  3. Then add paneer pieces and mix well. Leave the pan covered, on low flame for some time. Keep stirring now and then.
  4. Finally remove from the flame and transfer the contents to a serving bowl. Garnish with cilantro and serve. Paneer bhurji goes well with chapathis as well as rice.
