Paneer is Indian cottage cheese prepared from milk. We can prepare paneer at home or can buy from market. Paneer is my most favorite, of course everyone loves paneer😍. We can prepare many recipes with paneer. Today's kova paneer is very rich and delicious. Adding kova gives you sweet and rich taste to the gravy. I had this kova paneer in one marwadi function, from then it's one of my frequently prepared paneer recipe in my kitchen. Thanks to marwadi aunty for explaining recipe🤗.
The main ingredient is unsweetened khova, we can prepare it home or can buy from store. Khova is prepared with full fat milk, it is easy to prepare but need patience. If you donot have much milk to prepare khova, d't worry follow the trick, which I used today to prepare khova instantly using milk powder 😃 .
