My today’s recipe Paneer Lababdar in Restaurant Style is an aromatic, sweet and slightly spicy sabzi that swoons its eaters with enchanting flavours and its smooth paste-like gravy. Its an authentic Punjabi accompaniment that has a luscious combination of cottage cheese and exotic gravy made from tomato puree, chopped onions, cashew nuts and spices.
