Stuffed Masala Paneer Peppers

If you need Diwali inspiration then you must try Stuffed Masala Peppers. As you all know my love for paneer, I have to include this part of my Diwali menu. This dish can served as an appetizer or a side. The beautiful colors of peppers represent the festival. The melted amul cheese on top adds the perfect flavors. The recipe is keto friendly.
