what a tantalizing burst of flavors... i loved the use of red capsicum in it.. however after adding paneer... it ozzed out a little moisture.. i was worried as i didn't want it to be all mushy... but i just turned up the flame to high for a minute.. and there i had my perfect paneer capsicum subzi.. loved it!!!
