How to make Paneer Curry

Step 1

Make a thin paste using cornflour and water and mix kasoori methi, salt, chili powder and turmeric powder.

Step 2

Next, add paneer pieces into this paste and mix all the ingredients well. Ensure that paneer pieces are coated well with the paste. Leave the mixture for 30 minutes.

Step 3

After 30 minutes, shallow fry the paneer pieces in oil until they turn golden brown in color and then transfer them onto an absorbent paper to remove the excess oil.

Step 4

Now, heat some oil in a cooking pan and toss in all the spices. Fry the mixture for a minute or two and add ginger and garlic paste in the pan. Cook this mixture until the raw smell subsides. After that add onions to this mixture and saute for 2 minutes.

Step 5

Add the capsicum, carrot and beans to the pan and saute them for 2-3 minutes. Then add tomato puree in the pan and cook till the oil leaves the sides of your cooking pan.

Step 6

Add cream to this mixture and mix it with remaining contents in the pan. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 7

Once you get a light golden yellow color add some kasoori methi, tumeric powder, garam masala and chilli powder to this mixture. Simmer for a minute and allow the gravy to absorb the spices.

Step 8

Finally, add fried paneer pieces to this gravy and cook for about 3-4 minutes. Next, add some chopped coriander and transfer the contents into a serving bowl. Garnish with cream and coriander leaves and serve hot!
