Paneer Bhurji Curry /Paneer Bhurji Masala



We are into our final week of mega marathon and could not believe that I posted 20 recipes on time without any prior preparations.Though the theme was decided 6 months before,I finalized my recipes list just before the marathon started.

I am doing with different set of ingredients for each week as sub theme in Protein rich dishes.For this week I am sharing the recipes with dairy products such as paneer,milk,yogurt and cheese.

Today's recipe is a delicious and simple scrambled paneer/cottage cheese curry.I have already shared a dry version of paneer bhurji here.But this is a thick gravy version,pairs up very well with roti,naan,butter slathered pav and bread.

Ah this is a delicious gravy nalini, can't believe you are doing on daily basis..too good..

I usually make a dry paneer bhurji , but this in a gravy is seriously good :)

I often make the dry version of it but the gravy looks so delicious. Love the entire setup and pictures.

I usually pair chicken curry with bread and this paneer curry looks like an awesome replacement..

I love the idea of gravied paneer bhurji, and serving it with bread sounds delicious. the chat masala in the recipe is surely something that will give it a nice tangy taste.

I have never tried the gravy version of paneer bhurji. This sounds delightful. Will try it out soon.

Love this style of bhurji. I've had a dry version but your gravy one looks so delicious.

My paneer Bhurjee is usually a dry version and a quick fix. Love this gravy dish with paneer burjee. The pictures are so stunning!

My bhurji like the others is the dry version. This is delicious must try making it.

I can have few more rotis with this alluring paneer bhurji curry, fingerlicking goodness.

i have always made paneer burji as dry. Gravy is new to me. Nicely done.
