This is one of those recipes that when served, seems you took great effort in making this but on the contrary it is so easy to make with hardly any effort. I have cut down on deep frying and the heavy cream to make a healthier version of this dish but I promise there is no compromise on taste. Kadai paneer is such a colorful dish, it brings color to any table.

  • Chop all the vegetables in chunks.
  • Chop the paneer in cubes also.
  • Shallow fry all the vegetables including paneer and take them out on a paper towel so extra oil is soaked by the paper towel.

  • In a pan add oil and turn the stove on medium high heat and add cumin seeds.
  • When the seeds splutter add the ginger tomatoes mix and the tomato paste. Be careful when adding so it does not splash on you. Turn the heat down to medium. Keep stirring.
