Paneer Do Pyaja
Paneer do pyanja is a punjabi paneer dish .It is one of the most
popular paneer dish available in road side dhabas.As the name says it is
loaded with lots of onions so it is called as paneer do pyanja.The
first dish I tried having the same flavor is chicken do pyaja ,it was
just awesome as my father ordered it from among the most popular dhabas
in our area.It was so many years before and these days I prefer cooking
in my own I tried to make it of my own so I tried with paneer first and
it was just awesome ..So I thought of sharing the recipe with all ....
