Paneer Do Pyaza

Paneer Do Pyaza is a popular Indian dish that features chunks of paneer (a type of Indian cottage cheese) cooked with onions and a blend of spices. The name "Do Pyaza" literally translates to "two onions," indicating that the dish uses onions in two ways: first, they are sautéed with the paneer, and second, a second batch of onions is added towards the end of the cooking process for extra texture and flavor.

Here's a recipe for Paneer Do Pyaza:
