Paneer in almond and coconut milk sauce.

Friday evening was paneer night, yeah we decided to cook everything with paneer . This is a recipe I developed then, while wanting to cook an Indian curry which is slightly unconventional. I first chose the color of the dish to be white and then backtracked from there to develop the recipe.
This dish is a little sweeter for my palate but is a good option for a change in case you are a Paneer lover. The use of almonds adds a little texture, and the coconut milk adds the creaminess you crave on your paneer gravies.

Give it a try , this may be the Paneer variant you were searching for
Do try it out and let me know how you liked it in the comments below.
