"Crispy Cutlets" - made from Broken Wheat and Cottage Cheese

Broken wheat or Daliya or Burgul is as we all know boosts energy and enhances stamina.
Cottage cheese or Paneer is a food that is low in calories and high in protein.
Hence, broken wheat and Cottage cheese combination is very good for our overall health.
Although broken wheat is good for health, its not very palatable and not really liked by many, especially kids.
I make "Tabbouleh" or "Lebanese Broken Wheat Salad" quite often, but its not easy to convince my little one to eat it.
So today I decided on trying something new and different, which is not just healthy but also tasty and appealing to us and kids too!
So I made these cutlets using broken wheat as well as cottage cheese! Very simple to make and yet delicious!
After shallow frying they turned out very crispy so I have named it "Crispy Cutlets"!

Palak Paneer (Cottage Cheese with Spinach)


Paneer, is known as "Cottage Cheese" in English.
Cottage Cheese really is cheese. The difference with cottage cheese is that milk is curdled and drained instead of being processed or aged. 
Hence cottage cheese is higher in protein, and is good for people who have early dinner.
Also, good to pack in lunch boxes when you know you'll have a long time between meals.
Learnt this dish, from a friend.
Palak Paneer is best served with Rotis.
