A simple yet delicious starter/Appetizer and a perfect dish for potluck parties. You can even replace paneer with Tofu and prepare this dish. Just make sure you have soft, fresh paneer and bread crumbs. I used Keya (Low Oil absorbent)Japanese bread crumbs that was available in the nearby store. I prepared this during my husband’s birthday and hence couldn’t take step wise pictures. Shall upload it later.
