A delicious paneer recipe to make at home from ” Romy Gill’s India ” by Romy Gill. She says its also a great choice for packed lunches or summer picnics: cut a pitta in half, turn each half into a pocket and fill with paneer to enjoy with pickled onions and salad on the side. She also suggests you can eat this paneer in a wrap, along with sliced onions and the chutney of your choice.
