  • Turmeric powder-1/4 tsp

Notes

  • When frying the paneer balls, the heat should be low to avoid burning the food.
  • Turn the paneer balls frequently to avoid burning and as the paneer balls cook faster and have the tendency to stick in the cavity of Appe pan.
  • The bread and semolina give crispiness to the paneer balls.
