Instructions

1. 1

   Cube the paneer and keep it in warm water while the masala builds — this keeps it tender.

2. 2

   Brown the onions in butter, add the paste, and cook till the kitchen smells sweet and nutty.

3. 3

   Fry the tomato into the spices till it collapses and darkens a shade.

4. 4

   Stir in the bell pepper, lower the heat, and slide the paneer in with care.

5. 5

   Simmer three minutes — no more — finish with cream or crushed kasuri methi, and serve garnished with cilantro.
