For most of the Paneer masala, the underlying gravy is onion+tomato mixture. But instead of the conventional onion-tomato gravy, here the main ingredient is coriander leaves. The predominant flavor of coriander leaves makes this dish really delicious and yummy! Also the garlic cloves dominates the flavor. This spicy Dhaniya Paneer is a best combination for any Indian roti / Naan varieties!
