Paneer Tikka Buns is a delicious and popular Indian street food that is a fusion of two popular dishes, Paneer Tikka and buns. Paneer Tikka is a popular North Indian dish made by marinating small chunks of paneer (a type of Indian cottage cheese) in a flavorful blend of spices, yoghurt, and lemon juice, and then grilled or roasted. Buns, on the other hand, are soft, fluffy bread rolls that are often used as a base for sandwiches and burgers. When combined, the tender chunks of marinated Paneer Tikka, and the soft buns create a perfect balance of flavours and textures
