Smart Paneer and Chickpea Curry

with Spinach in Tikka Sauce

Golden morsels of paneer have a delicate creamy interior while the outer layer is delightfully crispy after getting a quick toss in the pan. Coupled with fibre-rich chickpeas stewed in a creamy tikka sauce, this curry is not to be missed! Smart is based on a per serving calculation of the recipe's kilocalorie and carbohydrate amount.
