👩🍳 7-Step Guide
1️⃣ Blanch the Broccoli
Boil broccoli florets in hot water for 2–3 minutes, then transfer to cold water to keep them crisp and green.
2️⃣ Sauté the Paneer
In a pan, lightly sauté paneer cubes with a bit of butter or oil until golden on the edges. Set aside.
3️⃣ Prepare the White Sauce
In the same pan, melt 1 tbsp butter. Add flour and stir for 30 seconds. Slowly whisk in milk to form a smooth sauce. Add salt, pepper, and herbs.
4️⃣ Mix the Ingredients
Combine the blanched broccoli and sautéed paneer in the sauce. Mix gently until everything is well-coated.
5️⃣ Layer It in a Baking Dish
Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish. Spread it evenly.
6️⃣ Add the Cheese Magic
Top with grated cheese. Sprinkle some chili flakes or oregano for extra flavor.
7️⃣ Bake to Perfection
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15–20 minutes, until the top turns golden and bubbly.
