Methi Paneer Bhurji is very tasty and yet simple curry that pairs perfectly with chapati. I love to stuff it inside and enjoy it as roll by making it little thick. My family and friends love this a lot. It’s a very quick recipe and doesn’t take much time. You can add any veggie to your liking while preparing this dish. I usually like adding capsicums while sauteing paneer, but this time I didn’t have capsicum so I just continued with peas. You try adding capsicum it will give a very good flavor to this dish. I feel paneer and capsicum are combination made in heaven. They pair so well. I never separate them some ingredients are best when paired with other ingredients. To me paneer and capsicum are the best combo.

Methi is very good for health. Usually dry methi leaves are used at the end of the paneer dishes to enhance the flavor, but here it’s used as one of the main ingredient along with paneer. This taste so much better than just using it as dry garnish. This methi paneer bhurji taste a lot or even better than the restaurant methi paneer bhurji. I always make paneer bhurji dry stuffing inside the bread or chapati or dosa. This is made little like curry since it has to be eaten with roti. I have homemade paneer recipe here and it taste very good. Do try it out.
