Paneer in Besan Curry

Paneer in Besan Curry is one extremely tasty gravy which is creamy and goes well with Naan or Phulkas. Now the beauty of this Paneer in Besan Curry is that though it has a creamy and smooth texture, it doesn’t really have any cream. Now this gives me a good reason to be guilt free and keep trying this.

Paneer in Besan Curry is one of my experiments when I had to cook Paneer and Capsicum together and didn’t wanted to cook it in a normal stir fry style. Some twists and some additions just made a perfect Paneer in Besan Curry. This came as a surprise to my son who is generally very happy to have paneer for dinner and was equally loved by other members of the family. The idea of adding Besan gave it a thickness while curd gave it the tanginess and two together made the blend quite creamy and equally yummy.
