Onions, tomatoes, ginger, garlic(optional), one red chilli. Grind
In a kadhai, heat some oil, add the powders - turmeric, red chilli, dhania, jeera - add paste. fry this paste until it leaves side of kadhai or you think its done. Add salt, some sugar. gently slip in haha cubes or cuboids or spheres or chunks ( paneer crumble not great in gravy. Boil peas separately and add at the end in the gravy. let it cook for a while.
Did I tell you how we make paneer at home? Milk-boil- add lime- let it curdle into big chunks - do not stir much - hang paneer in a thin muslin cloth or press on a sieve with weight. leave for a couple of hours for the whey to drain, store in fridge.
Pati says as a child, she used to have lime juice made of whey. never tried it. dare you to.
