    Dhaba-style paneer bhurji

    there are many versions of bhurji with paneer. for packing for school lunch I prefer this moist paneer bhurji. if you pack it for school lunch it stays good for hours. 

    Should I soak paneer for moist bhurji?

     store-bought paneer can be dry you can Soaking them in water makes them light and soft. Pat them completely dry then grate.

    crumble or grate

    you can crumble or grate the paneer according to your preference. the gravy consistency depends on the paneer softness

    should I dry-roast besan separately

    since I have sauteed besan with onion and  then cooked it in curd so besan won't taste raw

    depends on the consistency you need. if you prefer gravy type add extra water and boil
