Tip of the day: If you want to make paneer soft, juicy then put the paneer in hot water for 3 mins, press little to remove water then add it into the gravy the paneer observes the spices, becomes soft and juicy. Use fresh paneer or else just fry the paneer in butter then add into curry. Adding onions is optional by adding it cuts the sourness from tomatoes and gives creamy smooth gravy.
