Mutter Paneer
Hey! Today I cooked for every meal. I cooked Faraali Pattice for breakfast, Amti (Dal) for lunch, and this delicious Mutter Paneer bhaaji for dinner.
Everybody at my place loved the bhaaji, including me. So here's a different style of making Mutter Paneer*:
Preparation Time: 30 Minutes
Cooking Time: 20 Minutes
3. Chop half onion, and make a paste of remaining 1 1/2 onion.
