Palak Panner

The combination of Palak with veggies or meat is really amazing and with panner it is really mind blowing. I learnt this recipe from a Pakistani cooking channel and from the first attempt it never went wrong and it is really a rich and yummy recipe with simple ingredients and worth trying . It is an apt dish for parties to serve  with soft chappatis , butter naans or pulkas and sure to get a compliment .
