Rava Pizza, Eggless, no maida pizza, How to prepare pizza using semolina

Rava pizza is very easy to prepare, without adding egg and maida. Rava is also known as semolina or sooji. The taste of pizza depends upon how much  cheese we added. I use to purchase pizza base from mall to prepare pizza. But now a days I am using semolina/rava for base. It is healthy and tasty too, as I am going on vaccation thought to complete chesse which is their in fridge from long time. Today I prepared with minimum ingredients which is easily available at every home. Yes you have to purchase cheese compulsory to prepare this rava pizza 🤗.

 We make this rava pizza super healthy by adding veggies like onions,tomatoes,carrot, capsicum baby corns, olive. Today I used onion, tomato and carrot. We can use schezwan sauce to make pizza more tasty. I used tomato ketchup. I sprinkled pepper powder at end which added good taste, we can also use herbs. I used 4 Amul cheese cubes for 1 rava pizza. We can also use cheese slices.

Paneer lababdar, How to prepare restaurant style paneer lababdar

Paneer lababdar is famous North Indian paneer curry which is creamy, aromatic, bit sweet and spicy curry. "Lababdar" - means  a strong  desire for something and a desire to indulge in it" (information from google). It's been one of my favourite paneer recipes from my early days of cooking. I tasted this paneer lababdar with butter naans in one of the North Indian restaurant @Bhuvaneswar. I  fell in love with that  red silky, creamy and smooth texture of gravy with grated paneer and paneer pieces. Do not be scared of its name, just feel the taste of the curry😍😋. 

 Though we feel that the process is same as other gravy paneer curries, but trust me the gravy taste different more red silky and smooth. For this we boil tomato and other spices in water and grind it to smooth paste. Prepare this delicious gravy recipe for any parties at home with any flavoured rice items like -  Jeera rice, peas pulao, Carrot rice, Kashmiri Pulao or even we can also have with parathas like Lachha parathas, naans. Today I had this with Jeera rice 😋.

As I mentioned I had this paneer lababdar with Jeera rice. It's very good  combination, must try it and enjoy your day with your friends and family 😍❤️. 

Note

* Adjust spices accordingly. 

* we can also add onions in gravy preparation(step - 3) . For that you need to fry onion with other ingredients and then add water.  Otherwise gravy flavour will change. 

Tips

**  Paneer lababdar gravy tastes rich when we grate paneer in it. If you forgot to keep some paneer aside, no probs still gravy taste  delicious. 

** We can also prepare it in no onion, no garlic catogery.

** Fry paneer on non - stick otherwise it will stick to pan. 

** Frying paneer is optional, paneer tends to be so smooth it will break easily so we fry it lightly. 

** Gravy becomes thick quickly after preparation. If you are planning to serve lately then adjust water and heat it once. Do not mix roughly, paneer will break. 

** Add butter and grate paneer on gravy before serving in order to give restaurant paneer lababdar look 😍🤗.
