SHAHI PANEER | PANEER RECIPES

Shahi-paneer-recipe

     I usually make this way(stove top method though),but saw this simple recipe in the library book and tried it for a change. It was a welcome change and with simpler ingredients. Using ghee or oil is purely your choice, according to the taste(richness)  you want.

Shahi+paneer-recipes

INGREDIENTS

Paneer, cubed 1 cup
Onion ` 1
Tomato 4
Green chilli 1
Ginger 1 inch
Moti elachi 2
Red chilli powder 1 tsp
Garam masala powder 1/2 tsp
Pepper powder 1/2 tsp
Milk 1/4 cup
Tomato sauce 1 tblsp
Oil/ghee 3-4 tblsp
Salt as needed
Coriander leaves 2 tblsp

 

Method

  1. Cube onion and tomato,chop ginger,green chillies. Heat a pan with a tblsp of oil/ghee and add moti elachi,green chilli and chopped ginger followed by onion. Fry till transparent. Add chopped tomatoes and cook covered until mushy.
  2. s1-horz
  3. Cool and blend in a mixer and strain it. Mean while boil water and keep the paneer immersed in the hot water until use.
  4. s3-horz
  5. Heat pan with remaining oil/ghee and add the strained mixture. Add tomato sauce,salt,red chilli,garam masala,pepper powders.
  6. s5-horz
  7. Fry till oil separates and forms like a thick paste.Add paneer cubes drained from water.
  8. s7-horz
  9. Add milk slowly with constant stirring and heat in low flame for 2-3 minutes. No need to boil for more time.
  10. s9-horz

Garnish with the chopped coriander leaves and serve as accompaniment for roti or mild pulavs.

Notes
  • Do strain the mixture after grinding(step 3) .
  • The moti elachi has too much of fragrance,so 2 alone can make your gravy smell rich!
  • You can use thin cream in place of milk.

Uma said...

I usually avoid it as it has to be added cream. but i liked this version and it uses only milk which makes me an interest to prepare it. So creamy texture!

Cheers,
Uma

Lovely step by step pics raks. wat is moti elaichi? i have heard the green elaichi and the black one/.is this different? is it very strong flavour? it must have taken some time to prepare?? looks very delish.

Divya Kudua said...

Perfect colour Raks,just like they serve in restaurants!!I have bookmarked a recipe from manjula's kitchen,which does sound similar to this.Both are a must-try now for me:)

RAKS KITCHEN said...

Shoba, moti elachi is black cardamom. It has strong flavor yes. Only the straining process is extra in this recipe,otherwise its not much time consuming...

nice and easy recipe...Just made it..although I thought the tomato qty was just too much..it actually tasted like tomato soup...next time i will reduce tomatoes to 2 or at least increase the onion qty...but thanx a lot for the recipe..i hope to find such an easy recipe for shahi paneer without onion and garlic...
cheers..Gauri
