Paneer Masala:

Ingredients:

– 1 packet ELAINE Paneer Mix

– 1 cup Water (250ml)

– 1 tbsp Curd

– 200-250g Fried Paneer Pieces

– 1 Medium-sized Onion (about 40g), finely chopped

– 4 tbsp Tomato Paste

– 1 tbsp Butter

– 1-2 tbsp Fresh Cream

– Chopped Coriander Leaves, for garnish

– Extra Coriander Leaves for Garnish (optional)

Method of preparation:

1. Prepare the Gravy:

– In a medium-sized pan, pour the entire contents of the ELAINE Paneer Mix packet.

– Add 1 cup of water (250ml) and 1 tablespoon of curd to the pan.

– Mix the ingredients well until they form a smooth paste.

2. Add Paneer and Vegetables:

– Once the mixture is smooth, add the fried paneer pieces to the pan.

– Add the finely chopped onion and 4 tablespoons of tomato paste to the pan as well.

– Stir the ingredients gently to ensure the paneer and vegetables are evenly coated with the masala mixture.

3. Simmer the Mixture:

– Cover the pan with a lid and simmer the mixture over low heat for 8-10 minutes.

– This allows the flavors to meld together and the gravy to thicken.

4. Add Butter and Fresh Cream:

– After simmering, remove the lid and add 1 tablespoon of butter to the pan.

– Pour in 1-2 tablespoons of fresh cream as well.

– Stir the mixture gently to incorporate the butter and cream, creating a rich and creamy texture.

5. Garnish and Serve:

– Sprinkle chopped coriander leaves over the paneer masala for added freshness and flavor.

– Optionally, garnish with extra coriander leaves for a vibrant presentation.

– Serve the paneer masala hot with your favorite bread or rice dish.
