Instructions

  1. Put a pan on medium flame, and then heat the oil/ghee, and add the almond and cashew pieces.

2. Roast the nuts for 2-3 minutes, and then add chopped onions, ginger-garlic paste and stir it for 3-4 minutes.

3. Now, add the chopped tomatoes and mix it. Stir it, and when tomatoes get soft after 3-4 minutes, switch off the flame.

4. Take out the mixture from the pan, put it inside a blender jar, and wait for it to cool down.

5. While waiting for the mixture to cool down, turn on the heat to medium in the same pan as before and put the paneer cubes inside it.  Fry the paneer/cottage cheese pieces for 3 to 4 minutes and then switch off the flame.

6. Take out the semi-fried Paneer from the pan. The onion, nut, and tomato mixture should have cooled down by now, so put the paneer aside, and puree the mix properly.

Now, it's time to make the gravy using the pureed mixture.
7. Heat up the pan to the medium setting, and add 1/2 tbsp oil/ghee. Add cinnamon sticks, cardamom, cloves, and black peppers. Stir for 2 minutes.

8. After 2 minutes, add the pureed mixture to a pan, and stir occasionally for 3-4 minutes.

9. Add turmeric powder, coriander powder, Garam Masala, salt (about 1/4 tsp), and 2 cups of water.

10. After 1 minute add the tomato puree, simmer until the mixture turns golden, and then add 1/2 cup water. Mix everything well, cover it with a lid, and heat in medium setting. After 5 minutes open it and put the curd in it, and stir it properly using a spoon.
11. Switch the to flame medium/low and after 2 minutes put 1/4 cup of heavy cream and stir it using a spoon.

12. Add fried Paneer,  stir it for 1-2 minutes, and switch off the flame.
