Kalakand is a milk based sweet. Traditionally it is made by first making Chenna (the process is same as Paneer) and adding to milk that is reduced by boiling for a long time. This recipe takes half the time as well no cooking on stove, no cleaning those heavy bottom pan in which milk boiled and being very simple to make, the quantity is easily doubled or tripled and great for sharing during festive time.
... Veg Jalfrezi with Paneer
Veg Jalfrezi, A mildly spiced colorful curry packed with goodness of Mixed vegetables in tomato base. Soft Paneer, crunchy bell peppers and distinctive vegetable flavors makes it a mouth-watering side dish for Roti as well a filling for wraps. The curry is not a liquid gravy type dish but kind of semi solid gravy that coats the vegetables and Paneer.
