Easy Scrambled Paneer Bhurji is a very simple and easy to prepare dish that requires just few ingredients and can be prepared in less than 15 minutes.
For the paneer either use the store bought or prepare the paneer at home in advance and refrigerate it. I had some homemade one, so used it.
This paneer bhuji resembles the ‘scrambled egg’ only here the crumbled cottage cheese or paneer is used instead of eggs. So why not call it ‘scrambled paneer bhurji’.

Since there is radish in the refrigerator, it will be radish roti, so grated it and was about to mix it with the wheat flour, when suddenly thought of giving it a twist so that I not only have a new post for my blog (since I already have the Radish Paratha recipe on the blog) but also can give a little surprise to my children.
