PANEER STEAKS WITH GARLICKY MUSHROOM SAUCE
The pan-fried crisp paneer/cottage cheesesteaks with the mushroom sauce on top is my all-time favourite whenever I don’t want to cook much for the dinner. In the season when mushrooms are fresh, I make a delectable sauce with it which I use to make many dishes with. I find it the best condiment with the pasta and the hash browns
This time doing a big change in the base, I paired the sauce with the paneer steaks. These were somewhere in my mind for many days when I saw in a TV show the halloumi the Greek cheese) being pan-fried. As the halloumi is unavailable to us, I replaced it with our very dear and popularly used Paneer/cottage cheese. Both the cheeses are unripe and have the same texture but halloumi is made with goat or sheep’s milk, whereas paneer is made with cow or Buffalo’s milk
