Notes
- You can use a Paneer substitution in this recipe.
- Use freshly fine chopped ginger and garlic with a ratio of 1:2 or use Ginger and garlic paste.
- The food coloring is optional. Chefs in India love bright colored foods so they usually add lots of food colors into foods to make them appear more alluring. I leave the decision to you.
