Ingredients
2 tbsp Sunflower oil
225g Paneer (cut into cubes)
1 Cauliflower head, cut into small florets
2 Thickly sliced onions
2 Smashed garlic cloves
2 Heaping tbsp tikka masala paste
500g Passata carton
200g Peas, frozen
Coriander, roughly chopped from a small pack
To serve, use basmati rice or naan flatbread.
Serve with raita or your favorite chutney.
Directions
In a large nonstick frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil, add the paneer, and cook gently until crisp. Set aside after removing it with a slotted spoon. Cook for 10 minutes, until the cauliflower is browned, with the remaining oil.
- Cook for another 5 minutes, until the onions are softened, adding a little more oil if necessary. Season with salt and pepper after adding the garlic and curry paste, passata, and 250ml water. Bring to a quick boil, then reduce to low heat and cook for 18-20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is barely soft.
Cook for another 5 minutes after adding the frozen peas and crispy paneer to the pan. Stir in the majority of the coriander, then top with the rest. Serve with raita or your favorite chutney with basmati rice or naan bread.
