Ingredients:

Paneer (cottage cheese) – 250 g
Onion – 1 large (finely chopped)
Tomato – 2 (pureed)
Ginger-garlic paste – 1 tbsp
Green chilies – 2 (slit)
Fresh cream – 2 tbsp
Cashew nuts – 10-12 (soaked in water for 15 minutes)
Yogurt – 2 tbsp
Cumin seeds – 1 tsp
Bay leaf – 1
Cinnamon stick – 1 small piece
Cardamom – 2
Cloves – 2
Turmeric powder – 1/2 tsp
Red chili powder – 1 tsp
Garam masala powder – 1 tsp
Coriander powder – 1 tsp
Kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves) – 1 tsp
Salt – to taste
Fresh coriander leaves – for garnish
Oil or ghee – 2 tbsp
Water – as needed
Instructions:

Prepare the cashew paste: Soak the cashew nuts in warm water for 15 minutes and then grind them to a smooth paste.

Cook the whole spices: Heat oil or ghee in a handi (traditional clay pot) or a heavy-bottomed pan. Add cumin seeds, bay leaf, cinnamon stick, cardamom, and cloves. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.

Onions and ginger-garlic paste: Add chopped onions and sauté until golden brown. Add ginger-garlic paste and cook for 2-3 minutes, till the raw smell disappears.

Tomato puree and spices: Add the pureed tomatoes, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Cook the mixture until the oil starts separating from the masala.

Add cashew paste: Now, add the cashew paste and cook for another 2 minutes. This will give a rich, creamy texture to the gravy.

Yogurt and cream: Add yogurt and mix well. Let it cook for another 5 minutes. Then add fresh cream and stir to combine.

Add water: Pour in water as needed to achieve the desired consistency of the gravy. Allow it to simmer for 5 minutes.

Add paneer: Gently add the paneer cubes into the gravy and mix carefully so the cubes don't break. Simmer for 5-7 minutes so that the paneer absorbs the flavors.

Final touch: Sprinkle garam masala and kasuri methi. Mix gently and let it cook for another 2 minutes.

Garnish: Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves.

Serve hot with naan, roti, or steamed rice.

Enjoy your creamy and flavorful Handi Paneer!
