1 tsp chaar magaj (soaked for 2-3 hours)

1 large onion, finely chopped

2 tsps oil

1 green chilli, finely chopped

Method

Heat the oil in a pressure cooker

Add the jeera seeds & allow them to splutter, ensuring that they do not get overdone.

Now add the ginger followed by the garlic & sautee for 30 seconds.

Then add the onion & cook until translucent.

Now add the tomato puree & chaar magaj & cook for 3-4 minutes until the masala begins to thicken.

Add the haldi powder, red chilli powder & green chilli.

Sautee for another 2-3 minutes.

Add salt to taste.

Cook until the oil starts to leave the sides of the cooker.

Now add the paneer/ tofu & cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally so that the paneer/ tofu does not crumble.

Add 2 cups water & close the lid of the cooker.

Give 3 whistles on high & 1 whistle on low flame.

Once the pressure of the cooker is released, add the dhaniya & jeera powder.

Continue to simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
