## About

It is a modern twist on traditional Indian rice and paneer-based recipes to make it a balanced and filling meal. **Paneer Garlic Rice Bowl** tries to achieve two targets with one stone. In other words, it can be tiring and exhausting to make a flavoured rice pulav with an additional paneer-based side dish or curries. This meal combines and makes a versatile and interesting dish with extra vegetables, entirely open-ended. Further, the recipe offers a balanced approach of protein and carbs in one bowl. Hence, it is ideal to serve all age groups.

There are many different types of **rice bowl recipes** worldwide, but only a few variations attract the Indian taste buds. The first variation is a paneer-based bowl, for apparent reasons. The other most common type is tofu or soya chunk-based bowls. These are rich in protein and other nutrients, thus making a complete meal. The other common types are simple vegetable or lentil-based bowls. These are super healthy but may not be as attractive and tasty as the former.
