Lemon Coriander Paneer Recipe

Paneer is something which is loved by almost every individual. In any restaurant, we always end up ordering at least one "Paneer" dish. There are many paneer recipes that we all love like malai paneer or paneer butter masala or paneer bhurji or Paneer lababdar and the list is endless. But the recipe I am going to share is little different than what we usually have. Hope you all will like it.
