Trivia Tadka

Paneer Bhurji is usually a dry recipe but its curried version is very popular in Punjab. It is slightly different from the way the dry paneer bhurji is prepared. Although it is basically crumbled paneer simmered in tomato gravy, the taste leaves you drooling.

Ingredients

  • Paneer, mashed (1 cup)
  • Tomatoes, finely chopped (2)
  • Onion, finely chopped (2)
  • MTR Haldi Turmeric Powder (1 tsp)
  • MTR Garam masala powder (1 tsp)

  • MTR Lal Mirch Red Chilli Powder (1/2 tsp)
  • Coriander leaves (hara dhania), finely chopped (Optional)
  • Oil (1 tbsp)
  • Salt (To taste)

Method

  • Heat oil in a pan, add jeera to it. As it sizzles, add ginger-garlic paste and green chillies.
  • Then, add chopped onion and sauté for a minute. Add tomatoes and cook till the oil begins to separate and the mixture turns into a thick gravy.
  • Cook on low flame for two minutes and add salt, MTR Red Chilli powder and MTR Haldi Powder.
