Wow! Looks so Yummy! One question for you Padhu. When you say Chilli Sauce, may I know what sauce do you exactly use? I see so many kinds of chilli sauce in the store and don't know which one to buy.

jaya sree
hi padhu i tried this and it came out exactly. Simply superb delicious. Mouth watering. My hubby loved it a lot. It tastes exactly like made in restaurant. But the problem i had was after marinating the paneer and you had asked to just add little maida and mix. After it was marinated for 30 mts. But after that adding in oil for shallow fry the maida on that was little pasty pasty like. I do not know the reason. I made the receipt as it was suggested by you. could you kindly tell me dear what to do . Please reply. thanks. My love and regards to you.
Padhu Sankar
Maybe the paneer had moisture in it. That is why after adding maida, it would have become sticky.Try adding cornflour alone.
