There are some foods which remain favourites for most people like chocolates. In India, especially in North and Central India, Paneer is a favourite food item which is tasty, versatile, and vegetarian and it is served in most restaurants. Gujaratis, who are predominantly vegetarians, at least those who frequent restaurants, love their paneer and so most restaurants have a lot of paneer dishes on their menus.
Paneer or cottage cheese is a good source of protein, and, for vegetarians, it provides much-needed protein which is essential for a good physique, muscle mass and good health. It is also relatively low in calories as compared to cheese. But most of all its love for its smooth creamy texture and awesome taste. There is Palak Paneer, Mutter Paneer, Paneer Kurchan, Paneer Pasanda, Shahi Paneer, Kadhai Paneer and many other such dishes.
