Health Benefits
Paneer/cottage cheese is a great source of protein. This is because the cheese is basically made using milk. This means it also contains a considerable amount of fat.
This dish is also rich in vital minerals, such as calcium and magnesium. Calcium is needed to maintain healthy teeth, bones, heart muscles, and proper nerve functioning. Magnesium, on the other hand, will help your body to regular the sugar levels in the blood.
