I made cheese, then I made curry:



Mutter paneer; no rear end destruction (unless you are lactose-intolerant), just cheesy peasy tastiness .

Looks badass. Post the recipe if you wouldn't mind.

Not at all :)

The cheese is very easy to make, I just use Manjula's recipe from here:

http://www.manjulaskitchen.com/2008/05/24/how-to-make-paneer/

and left it under the weight for 3 hours to get it as firm as possible.

To make it into mutter paneer, I started with a 2 person serving of a curry base sauce something like this:

http://www.greatcurryrecipes.net/2011/06/24/how-to-make-restaurant-style-curry-sauce-for-use-in-many-different-curry-recipes/

I can't find the recipe I originally used to make a big batch for the freezer a few months ago, but I'm pretty sure it was broadly the same as the one linked above. Anyway, you take your curry base, then add about 1.5 tablespoons of tomato puree, a heaped tablespoon of whatever curry masala spice mix you like, about a tablespoon of cream and 6-8 cashews mashed to a fine paste.
Heat this gently until it thickens a little and the cashew mix is cooked. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Then add about a cup of peas (I used petit pois for extra sweetness and tenderness) and finally the paneer. Most recipes call for pre- frying it to stop it crumbling in the sauce but I didn't feel like dealing with the mess so I just cubed it carefully and sort of nestled each piece into the sauce to warm through, and they didn't crumble at all.

Edit: VVV That was careless of me, fixed now - thanks :) VVV
