Chef's Notes
Do not rush the tomato reduction. Letting the oil separate is the secret to unlocking the true depth of the masala without using excessive oil.
Pro Tip
Soak your cashews in warm water for ten minutes before blending if your machine struggles to create a completely smooth paste.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Turning the stove up too high during the spice-sautΓ©ing phase will instantly burn your chili powder and turn your gravy into bitter charcoal.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I asked the chef for extra cashews, and he looked at me like I'd just asked to repossess the crown jewels.
The Culinary Science
Frying paneer lightly creates a thin protein skin that prevents the cheese from melting into rubber when exposed to hot acidic tomato sauces.

Flavor Maturation & Emulsion Protection
Storage Science
Cool rapidly in a shallow container before refrigerating. Curries and stews often taste better on day two as aromatic compounds continue to bloom and mingle in the fat matrix. Consume within 4 days.
Reheating Science
Reheat slowly on the stovetop over medium-low heat, stirring gently. If the fat has separated (broken emulsion), add a tablespoon of boiling water and whisk vigorously to re-emulsify before serving.
