    Aloo Paneer Curry

    I like to create new side dishes for our daily roti or paratha to make it special and not boring. This is one curry which i made recently and it turned out so yummy. The curry had its own creaminess without the addition of cashews, cream or milk.

    Ingredients for Aloo paneer Curry

    Potatoes :
    The potato has a medium starch texture, is slightly creamy and dense, and has a delicate skin. White potatoes have a mildly sweet flavour and are low in sugar.

    Poppy Seeds / Khus Khus / Kasa Kasa :
    Poppy seeds, even when plain, have a mild flavour, which is why they're so popular as a garnish.

    Coriander Powder : Coriander has a flowery flavour similar to cardamom. It has a citrus and curry flavour that is light and sweet. The roasted, nutty scents of the seeds come to the fore when ground, albeit at the sacrifice of all that beautiful citrus.

    You can serve aloo paneer with chapatis or paratha or pudina paratha and even cumin rice or peas pulao.

     
    Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
