Helpful Tips:
A simple trick to get soft paneer cubes. Heat water in a pot for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and dunk the paneer cubes into the hot water. Let the paneer cubes remain in the water for 10 minutes. Drain the water and let paneer cubes dry out in a soup strainer. Use them as per the recipe needs. Change the spice levels to your taste. Freshly ground pepper makes the dish very aromatic. The vegetables other than onions and garlic can be prepped the previous day and kept in an airtight container in the fridge. You can substitute lemon juice with amchur. Vegetables with under 5 grams of carbs are considered ketone-friendly. Hence you may replace the capsicum with zucchini, cabbage, or asparagus.

Success!
