Instructions

1
Slice the paneer thick enough to stay proud in the gravy; warm-soak and drain.
2
Brown the onions in butter, add the paste, and cook till the kitchen smells sweet and nutty.
3
Tip in the tomato with the spices and bhunao till glossy, thick and clearly done.
4
Add the black pepper if using, then the drained paneer; fold gently — paneer breaks if bullied.
5
Simmer three minutes — no more — finish with cream or crushed kasuri methi, and serve garnished with cilantro.

Chef's tip

Fry the paneer lightly first if you want it to hold in gravy.
