Paneer Patties Recipe

Patties are popular dishes because they can be filled with all the flavors of your favorite foods. Patties have been a staple in American diets for centuries and come in many forms, but classifying them is difficult due to their variety of shapes and sizes!

Patties are often served as appetizers or side dishes at barbecues, tailgates, picnics--or any party where people get together to enjoy good food while socializing over drinks. Some patties use ingredients inside pastry crusts which then get baked or fried; others may just need breading before being cooked up some more.
