Tawa Paneer Masala

Atlast updated Recipe Index which was pending since last Ramadan or so. Sometimes life goes on in such a fast pace that you don't find time for such easy-veesy things. In my case, it's not 'sometimes' , but 'always'. I really miss those days when I sit for hours infront of fb and chat with friends. That was the time when I started my blog on one side and was giving MBA exams on the other. Nowadays I could find time only to Whatsapp. How I wish blogging would've been that easy! sigh!!

But this recipe defenitely is. You can make it in 15 minutes or so just like that. I don't think I've ever made any delicious recipe in such a short time. Hats off to Masterchef participant Zebi Zubair for this recipe.You must try this out .It's that easy and delicious.
