Paneer Kheema Korma

Yesterday, I went and bought two litres milk from one of the big shops. When I made tea with it, I did not like the taste of it, so now I had a problem of finishing up this milk. After thinking for a while, thought of making some paneer with it. I made the paneer and kept it under the heaviest of things (my marble chappati stone), but after two hours also the paneer did not become solid and I could not cut small pieces from it. I had a crumbly paneer but the quality of the paneer was good.

I had to make something good out of this. How can I throw this away? Took some ideas from my older post and made my own Panner Kheema Korma.

Ingredients:

1. 200 gms paneer kheema
2. 1 medium sized onion cut into small pieces
3. 5 garlic cloves cut into small pieces
4. 1 inch ginger cut into small pieces
5. 1 tblsp tomato puree
6. 1 tsp. turmeric powder
7. 1 tsp. chilli powder
8. 1 tsp. coriander powder
9. 2 tsp. garam masala
10. 1/2 cup plain yogurt
11. 1/2 cup green peas
12. salt to taste
13. coriander leaves for garnish
14. 2 tblsp. oil

Method:

• In a heavy bottomed pan, heat oil and saute the onion, garlic and ginger until slightly brown.
• Add the turmeric powder, chilli powder, coriander powder and garam masala and saute on slow fire for 2 minutes.
• Add the tomato puree and saute for 1 more minute. Now add the green peas, salt and half a cup of water and let it cook for 5 minutes (until the peas are done and water has evaporated).
• Now add the paneer kheema and saute for another 2 minutes. Add the plain yogurt at the end and cover and cook.
• Garnish with coriander leaves.
• Serve it hot with rotis.
