Method

  1. In a large bowl, add curd, roasted besan, ginger garlic paste, Kashmiri red chilli powder, cumin powder, black pepper, turmeric powder, salt, lemon juice, and hot mustard oil. Mix well to prepare the marinade.

    Our tip Dry-roast the besan in a pan, stirring, until it smells nutty and darkens a shade. Heat the mustard oil until it just starts to smoke; that takes off its raw, sharp edge.

  2. Add paneer cubes, diced capsicum, onion, and tomato to the marinade. Coat everything evenly and let it marinate for .
  3. Move the SmartSwitch to Air Fry Mode and insert the Combi Pan into Level 1.
  4. Select SEAR/SAUTÉ function, set the temperature to HI 5, and press the button to start preheating.

    Our tip Keep the door open: Sear/Sauté won't run with it shut.

  5. Add cooking oil and cumin seeds to the pan. Sauté for a few seconds until aromatic.
  6. Add chopped onions and cook until light golden brown. Add ginger garlic paste and sauté for another minute.
  7. Add tomato puree, coriander leaves, red chilli powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, Kasuri methi, salt, and garam masala. Mix well and cook the base gravy on SEAR/SAUTÉ at HI 5 for , stirring occasionally until the masala is well cooked.

    Our tip The masala is ready when it has darkened, thickened to a paste and oil shows at the edges. Stir more often towards the end, when it starts to catch.

  8. Add a one teacup water to adjust the gravy consistency and mix well (adjust water as per your preference of texture).
  9. Add the marinated paneer mixture to the prepared gravy and gently combine. Slide the pan into Level 1.
  10. Close the lid and switch SmartSwitch to cooker mode, select COMBI MEALS function. Set the temperature to 200°C390°F and cook for .
  11. Once cooking is complete, carefully open the lid, mix gently, and garnish with kasuri methi and fresh coriander leaves.
  12. Serve hot with naan, roti, or jeera rice.
