YOU Magazine Fashion Beauty Celebrity Health Life Relationships Horoscopes Food Interiors Travel Home Uncategorized Chetna Makan’ s masala paneer By You Magazine - June 14, 2020 This masala paneer is hands-down my kids’ favourite paneer recipe. They happily eat it with chapatti, naan or rice. The ingredients are simple and the paneer gives just the right amount of sourness and creaminess – awesome. Image: Nassima Rothacker.
