Cottage Cheese in Garlic and Cajun spice

People get confuse between Paneer and Cottage cheese but both are different. Paneer is known as farmer cheese and has a much higher content of fat in it. Whereas cottage cheese has a greater content of protein in it and lesser fat than paneer. Paneer become little hard after cooking and cottage cheese remain soft after cooking, but never over cook paneer and cottage cheese.

This dish is very good starter or evening snack.
