Hi...
Happy Christmas everybody...:)
I can see everyone preparing delicious recipes, packing lovely gifts and ya waiting for the santa's visit with a 1..2...3........pages wishlist....
My kitchen too had prepared some stuffs specially for X'mas....but as always it will be here after X'mas...:(
Y so?
Hmmm...ok in short we are shifting to our new apt on 24...and guys b'coz of that we had an inspection for the current apt...so we thought lets pack and the first stuffs packed where baking dishes and the books from which I had prepared the recipe...I dint realize then as I was too busy cleaning...but after that immediately it stuck me....My hus told that he can unpack the stuffs...but thinking about the work done to pack it made me say No!!!...So with these things going at my end..I think I will be away from blog for some more time...

Anyways...I did prepare yummy mutter paneer and we loved it...This recipe is from Rak's Kitchen. Here is the recipe..

2. Fry it for a minute and take from heat.Let it cool and grind it with little water to a smooth paste.
3. Heat a pan. Drizzle oil on it and keep the paneer cubes on it and shallow fry them.Keep aside.
4. Again heat oil in a pan and add the green chillies and the ginger garlic paste,fry for a minute,then add the ground paste. Fry for a minute or two.
