  • Add chopped tomatoes or homemade tomato paste. Mix well and fry till oil floats on top.
  • Add all the spices, stir, and add the mixed vegetables. Add a little water, cover, and cook till all the vegetables are tender.
  • Add cashew paste, and a little more water to get a nice gravy consistency.
  • Add the paneer cubes, and kasoori methi crushed if using. Cover and cook for a few minutes.
  • Check for salt and add more if needed. Garnish with cilantro/coriander leaves.
