Chef's Notes
Treat your paneer with the respect it deserves; quick frying gives it a magnificent texture that absorbs gravy without dissolving into a sad, rubbery puddle.
Pro Tip
Crush your kasuri methi firmly between your palms right before adding it to unleash maximum aromatic oils that will elevate your dish from wonderful to legendary.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you blast the heat when adding the tomato puree and spices, your gravy will turn into an angry volcanic mud puddle that splatters your clean kitchen walls and tastes bitterly burnt.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I asked the chef why we use so many spices, and he told me it's to hide the fact that we forgot to season the pan for ten years.
The Culinary Science
Frying cashews triggers the Maillard reaction, developing complex nutty flavor compounds that naturally thicken and enrich the tomato-based gravy.

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.
