Paneer In Tomato Gravy

This is a unique gravy. Sometime back i had got the recipe for the gravy from a tv food show. It's a kashmiri dish. Beautiful flavour with tomato puree and fenel powder. This will go well with Naan's / Roti's. This has become my favorite and fastest gravy.

  • Salt to taste
  • Jeera powder - 1/2 tsp

If it's paneer it has to be good. I'm tired of the restaurant style paneer dishes which all taste the same.
This looks different.
