Print Recipe
Paneer khurchan is a delicious North Indian delicacy made with cottage cheese cooked in mild spices. Khurchan means scraping and that’s exactly how this dish is cooked. It is cooked over a griddle by scraping the paneer whenever it sticks on the griddle.

Chop paneer in small cubes..

 

 

Saute veggies..

I’m going to enjoy this dish with some roti and raita for lunch today and wish you all a great week ahead..
