[@nujjy95]

This looks so good 😍 I’ve never thought of chickpeas with paneer. Usually with saag or peas. Definitely going to give this recipe a go. Thank you ❤

[@FoodwithChetna]

Hope you enjoy

Hi Chetna it’s Maxine 81 yrs young again what a coincidence I bought that magazine last night after a lovely day out but haven’t even opened it yet but I will now after seeing that tasty recipe hurrah loved your top I love your style xx

[@alistairmacfadyen9365]

Made this tonight❤❤❤

[@FoodwithChetna]

Yeah

[@rianamohamed300]

That looks so yummy. Must try. But paneer not easily found. So have to search.

[@michellepatterson9743]

Thank you. I have just tried out your recipe for dinner and it is absolutely delicious. ❤️❤️❤️

[@aloxingh]

I somehow "bumped" onto one of your videos a few days ago. Your recipes are simple to understand. Keep this going.

[@FoodwithChetna]

Welcome to my channel

[@sandrayoung336]

Chetna, I love your cooking! It looks so delicious!! I’m definitely gonna try this one! Can I please leave ask what is panee? Where do I get it from? Xx

[@medusa1448]

Paneer is just an Indian firm cottage cheese which you can get in any supermarket sainsburys, asda tesco all have them.

[@FoodwithChetna]

In super markets or can make your own, recipe on my channel

[@listeninglalala]

I made this tonight and the rice cooked unevenly even though I used a wide pan. The flavor was excellent, however, and I'd make it again. I added some roasted/salted peanuts before serving to add some crunch. Many thanks for the recipe and easy to follow instructions!

[@FoodwithChetna]

that sounds a bit odd, was it covered evenly with water?

[@alwilson6471]

Hi Chetna. Is there any chance you could consider providing a link to a printable copy of your recipe? I like to print the ones I consider "keepers" (like most of yours!) so I can cook them without having to keep referring to the video.

[@la78wson78]

Hi Do you have a specific brand of rice we can use?thank you

[@FoodwithChetna]

I like to use basmati rice, any brand will work

[@annemackey1512]

Thank you for yet another simple but wonderful recipe. This should save some pennies as it doesn’t take a long time to cook…just boil the kettle and a short time on the stove. Relatively inexpensive ingredients too. I like!

[@FoodwithChetna]

Exactly that Anne

[@robertlonergan9401]

Almost like a risotto!

[@cynthiacrumlish4683]

Love that pan! Can you let us know the brand?

[@FoodwithChetna]

Its from Haufson

[@cynthiacrumlish4683]

Thanks!

[@suehewitt4696]

Hi Chetna - I love watching you cook in your own kitchen. Tried your chicken Pulao yesterday - it was delicious. Will try the paneer and chickpea dish next I think. Thanks for the inspiration. 1.6.24

[@FoodwithChetna]

enjoy

[@elisemartinez8235]

It’s hard to find curry leaves where I live, do you have a substitute recommendation? I love all of your recipes! Can’t wait to make this 🖤

[@FoodwithChetna]

no alternative, just skip it

[@JimDriver]

I had a similar problem, so bought a small plant online (from a garden centre) for about £20 and let it grow. They thrive in a sunny window, provided you don't over-water them.

[@elisemartinez8235]

@@JimDriver I've not thought about doing that, I'll look around online! Thanks

[@elisemartinez8235]

@@FoodwithChetna Thanks Chetna!

[@richardwallace6313]

Kaffir lime leaves probably are the closest equivalent, but if you cannot easily get kari leaves near you then kaffir lime leaves might also be hard to find. Another decent alternative (no subs are ever 100%) is a mix of bay leaf and lime zest (50-50, I reckon, for starters).

[@courtneyknight2407]

Would this work with short grain brown rice?

[@johncrwarner]

I recently had a vegan dish with tofu cubes instead of paneer and it tasted good - as tofu and paneer both have no taste and just absorb the flavours from around them. I think I will try this with extra firm tofu chunks. BTW I, even when I lived in a community with a high South Asian population, could never find fresh curry leaves. Where do you find yours?

[@rianamohamed300]

Indian spice shops. But better to grow ur own

[@juniperjane9582]

Hi Chetna, your food always looks amazing but do your kids ever ask for fish fingers and chips 😃

[@FoodwithChetna]

yes they do, they ask for super noodles every now and again

[@atulkotian]

I always make this exact same combination of pulao but it gets soggy in the pressure cooker 😂, I must try making it on a pan like this recipe

[@kayebee4794]

I am envious whenever I see chopping white onions nowadays. In my country, there's a shortage (suspected as an artificial one) of white onion. And you can't buy, neither visibly see one in our local market/grocery. 😥😢 I really miss them!!!! 🧅 🧅🧅🧅 Btw, the recipe looks simple and delicious! 💗

[@FoodwithChetna]

So sorry to hear

[@panda4831]

Anything less than 15/30 mins..you have my attention 😀😀

[@FoodwithChetna]

then you will love this

[@MM-og7yj]

I like your top you are wearing

[@FoodwithChetna]

thanks

[@denisehenry1577]

Would like to have you visit and share your wealth of knowledge, here in the Caribbean! 💯 I love to do business w/ you someday soon!

[@twolfe2518]

what brand of paneer is good?

[@FoodwithChetna]

Quite a few, depends on where you live

[@kweikikwapong7045]

Hi, I am London based and have previously struggled to find fresh curry leaves...any tips on the best place to find some? Thanks

[@ajitpatel9106]

Most Indian super markets sell fresh curry leaves or dried curry leaves in packets. I'm in North London. If you're near me, I can drop off some or post them

[@lynnbutenhoff2250]

How do I find paneer cheese?

[@nobirahim1818]

Either in the cheese section in the supermarket. Don't confuse it with feta cos the packaging looks very similar to paneer. Chetna also has a recipe on her channel 😊

[@FoodwithChetna]

You can find in supermarkets or make your own, recipe on my channel

[@chestersmith1384]

Try to keep some of that rice water. You can use it for your hair or to water your plants!

[@DreemDeep]

What is the water/rice ratio please? I know usually it's 2:1 with Basmati

[@FoodwithChetna]

Says in the video

[@ivanwoodhouse1958]

Use a rice cooker

[@FoodwithChetna]

Why? no need for it
