I was never into cooking till I got married and came to USA where you ought to cook your own to survive! :) But I am glad I developed this interest in trying out new dishes , thanks for all the cravings I had thinking about the delicious food that my aunty(mom's sister) cooked back home. So here I am, after 3 years of experimenting in the kitchen, writing my own blog to share with all of you to make your lives simple with easy , quick and delicious delights! Hope you enjoy the recipes!

Paneer curry!
This is my first ever try at a Paneer (Indian cheese) dish. Apparently it was paneer makanwala recipe that I tried but called it paneer curry since I did not use butter at all.:) It came out pretty rich and tasty. It was ready in 20 minutes.
You will need:
1 block paneer (store bought/or home made) cut into cubes
1 cup tomato paste
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tbsp ginger garlic paste
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1/4 tsp chilli powder
salt to taste
1 tsp dried fenugreek leaves(kasoori methi)
1 cup water
1 tsp olive oil
4 tbsp evaporated milk
Method
Heat oil in pan. Add cumin seeds and ginger garlic paste and mix well. To this add the tomato paste and cook for 5 minutes until the oil separates from the mixture. Then add chilli powder, turmeric powder, kasoori methi and salt and mix well. Add the paneer cubes and cook for another 2 minutes. Finally add the evaporated milk and stir gently for another 2 minutes. Add water to adjust the consistency.
Paneer curry is ready to be relished!!! It goes well it nan or rotis!!
