Grilled pesto paneer with smokey mushroom & cherry tomatoes
This is what my brunch looked like today and I swear I licked my plate clean.
I made grilled pesto paneer with smokey mushroom in sweet chilli sauce and pan grilled cherry tomatoes with basil on side .
I made sweet chilli sauce yesterday and was thinking how would it taste with mushrooms so tried it and it turned out so well.
The sauce infused Mushrooms with pungent smokey flavour and a sweet tangy after taste while grilled garlic tomatoes did actually melt in my mouth. I just couldn't stop after a bite and finished it all under 2 minutes .
The entire combination of raw pesto paneer along with tomatoes and mushroom was such a Success. A perfect mix of salt sweet sour - S3 or rather S cube.
