Paneer (cottage cheese) is a delicacy in itself. And when served and eaten as a snack, it actually becomes rich dish. I personally do no like raw cheese but when it comes to grilled cheese, there’s nothing better. This recipe is best cooked with coal in flame but alternatively, it can be prepared in an oven or grilling pan too. Let’s see how we prepare this wonderful recipe.
Ingredients:

- 1/2 TBSP turmeric powder
- 1/2 TBSP garam masala
- 1/2 bowl full cream milk

Procedure:
Step 1: pour the curd in a bowl, add salt, red chilli powder, haldi powder and mix well.
Step 2: make a fine paste of green chillies, garlic and ginger and add to the curd mix.
