Paneer Kofte Saagwale is a delicious curry in which paneer (cottage cheese) and spinach (palak) are the main ingredients. In Mathura, the birthplace of Lord Krishna, milk is in abundance, so all the milk products such as butter, cream, khoya, paneer are easily available.

Chef Harpal pairs the paneer with palak and comes up with this scrumptious Paneer Kofte Saagwale. The kofte (paneer balls) are soft and luscious and the palak gravy is spicy and tangy.

The amazing Paneer Kofte Saagwale are finger-lickingly delicious.
