Kids love paneer specially if it made in creamy and buttery gravy. Here I am sharing another paneer recipe being cherished by my kids. Paneer labadar is a side dish which can served with tandoori roti or with plain chapati. It requires less ingredients as compared to shahi paneer and tastes heavenly. Do try this recipe and share your feedback.
