My Pro-tips
1.Start marinating process a day earlier if possible or at least 2 hours prior in order to let all those delectable spicy flavours getting soaked well into cottage cheese chunks (paneer).
2.Add some lemon juice drops while marinating any curd based sauces/marinades,because this will help marinade penetrate easily into vegetables/paneer,cleanse indian cheese giving curried taste/flavour all blending upto perfection without feeling heavy!
Seasoning Options
Don’t hesitate adding extra herbs/spices such as garam masala,dry fenugreek or even green chillies, when marinade is being prepared as little extra herb/spice kick can never hurt!
