PANEER LABABDAR (Cottage Cheese in simple gravy)

Paneer had always been my SH's fav but the only dish which can be made with paneer at my place is pan roasted with little salt n red chilli powder as a munch. 

After watching Chef Vikhas Khannas recipe SH finally requested me to prepare this dish. A low calorie version of "Paneer Lababdar" with no cream or milk. This dish was too yummy and a great healthy option for paneer lovers.  

What you need:1 cup - Paneer, cubed
1 no - Onion, chopped
1 no - Tomatoes, chopped
1/2 tsp - Garlic paste 
1/2 tsp - Ginger paste
1 tsp - Cumin seeds
1 tsp - Red chilli flakes
1/2 tsp - Dry coriander, crushed
1/4 tsp - Turmeric powder
Pinch of Garam masala
1 tbsp - Olive Oil
Salt as reqd
1 tbsp - Fresh Coriander, chopped

How to make:
Heat oil in a pan add onions, ginger n garlic paste and saute well. Add cumins seeds, tomatoes, turmeric, red chiili flakes, coriander flakes, garam masala, salt and cook till it turns soft.

Turn of the heat and let it cool and make into fine paste add some water while grinding.

Return the paste to the same pan, cover and cook for a few mins until the gravy thickens.

Add Paneer to the gravy give a nice mix and sprinkle coriander leaves and serve hot with Rice or Rotis.
