Today I post “PANEER
LAAJWAAB” recipe in BM #19 2nd Group under the theme BM blog post. Under this
theme, we have to choose the three recipes from our co-blogger’s blog. So for
that I choose Ribbon’s to Pasta’s Blog which managed by Vaishali. She is really
so sweet by nature as well as more talented in food and creative art… always
trying new recipe with innovations as well amazing presentation.

For the Blogging

we grill the paneer for beautiful looks and make gravy with tomatoes and gourd
puree… for me in this recipe Bottle gourd is very innovative twist to Paneer
