ABOUT Paneer Macroni/Pasta in Indian Style RECIPE

An Indian flavour to the Italian based pasta. I made this as the main course for the valentine theme meal. We thoroughly enjoyed having it. As I live in a place where I dont get much of any ingredients to make a variety of international dishes, I thought why not give the Indian touch and I was glad I thought so. Try this simple pasta dish and its super yummy!.

Can you please tell me what is curry powder? Is it the powder made out of dried curry leaves?
