Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 ½ cups tomatoes 400g, approx 4 tomatoes, roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup raw unsalted cashews 35g
  • 1 clove garlic large, peeled and roughly chopped
  • 1 tablespoon ginger approx 1in/2.5cm piece, peeled and roughly chopped
  • 1 green chili roughly chopped (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon butter 10g
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • ½ teaspoon Turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoon heavy cream (double cream)
  • 8 oz paneer 225g, cut in to cubes
  • 1 handful cilantro coriander, roughly chopped

Instructions

  1. Puree together the tomatoes, cashews, ginger, garlic and chili if using until there are no large pieces.
  2. Melt the butter in a pan. Add the cumin seeds and cook for a minute before adding the coriander and turmeric. Stir and cook a minute more.
  3. Add the tomato mixture and the sugar. Cook, stirring now and then, for around 15-20 minutes until it reduces down slightly and you see the butter bubbling through the tomatoes.
  4. Add the cream and paneer, stir and reduce to a simmer and cook another 2-3 minutes.
  5. Stir in the cilantro (or put over the top for decoration and to allow people to do themselves) and serve.
