Saucy Paneer Noodles



Here’s my first recipe and I named it as saucy paneer noodles. This recipe is actually my mom’s and she used to cook noodles with prawns…too flavored and delicious one. Since I love saucy and spicy food, i made slight changes to my mama’s recipe. Instead of paneer, u can try for chicken, prawn, egg yea simple veggie one.  Even though the name says as saucy, the recipe is a kind of dry one. If you don’t love the saucy taste then you can make it as plain and try with chicken pieces…it’s a yum yum!!!
