Paneer Bhurji- Scrambled paneer cooked with tomato ,capsicum and few basic spices.

Paneer Bhurji is a very popular recipe of Punjabi Cuisine from North India. It is a delicious quick and easy recipe made with grated paneer/cottage cheese.  Bhurji means scrambled so this is delicious scrambled cottage cheese stir fried with some veggies in it.

Paneer Bhurji can be served for breakfast with toast or for lunch and dinner with roti or parathas. You can use the leftover paneer bhurji to stuff in sandwiches and kathi rolls or make grilled sandwich with it. Both ways it taste just awesome.

Paneer Bhurji is the most simplest and easy recipe to make , even beginners can make it very perfectly. The ingredients required are very simple and easily available in every kitchen. I have added capsicum and peas in it but you can avoid it if not available even then it taste simply delicious.

For making Bhurji try using fresh and soft home made paneer , else use good quality ready malai paneer. The recipe is very simple . First saute green chili ,ginger and capsicum in oil . Then add chopped tomato and spices and stir fry till tomato get cooked . Then add paneer, butter and some grated cheese and mix every thing.

Your delicious bhurji will be ready in 15 minutes time. Addition of cheese and pav bhaji masala is optional but gives a very nice taste to the bhurji

You can add some water and 2 tbsp tomato ketchup after cooking the tomatoes to make it gravy style paneer bhurji.
