Hara Bhara Paneer Tikka(My 250th Post)
I am so happy to first announce that it's my 250th recipe hurray!!!!!!! didn't know I could cook this many dishes in 1 and half year. Feeling very very happy. Thanks to everyone who has been following this site and been regular to my site.I couldn't have done it without you thank you so much. I wish to have your support throughout my blogging days. Now back to A-Z Blogging Marathon conducted by srivalli and logo design done by preeti.
Today I am posting alphabet "H" as Hara Bhara Paneer Tikka under Regional & Baking/Broiling category. I know everyone loves paneer and its the best substitute for vegetarians like us.
While barbecuing chicken,meat are mostly used but after the entry of paneer vegetarians have also had the pleasure of tasting good barbecued food. Its Punjab origin and all Punjabi food are my fav food. The mix of coriander and mint gives very nice flavor to this tikka. Enjoy this yummy recipe given below.
