How fabulous and healthy is this dish na, a prefect side dish for rotis. Simply love these sort of delicious and quick dishes.
OMG! That is a super tempting thali for sure. I would really love to sit down to enjoy this meal. The burji with palak and paneer looks so delicious..
I often make this palak paneer bhurji and fill it in my pinwheels. This would make a nice side dish for rotis too.
adding palak in paneer bhurji makes it tastier. a healthy twist to simple bhurji. This platter looking so delicious.
what a fabulous birthday feast - everything looks so good
