Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick pan with a lid over medium heat. When hot, add the black mustard seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds, then add the roughly chopped red onion and cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion starts to soften.
-
Step 2.
Add the finely chopped ginger, garlic, and green chilli to the pan. Cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant. Then add the garam masala, ground coriander, ground cumin, ground turmeric, chilli powder, salt, and sugar. Stir well to coat the onion mixture.
-
Step 3.
Add the paneer chunks to the pan and cook for 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally, until the paneer starts to brown on all sides. Then add the diced mango, cashew nuts, coconut cream, and 100ml water. Stir to combine, cover with the lid, and simmer for 6–8 minutes, or until the paneer is cooked through. If the curry seems too thick, add a splash more water as needed.
-
Step 4.
Remove the pan from the heat. Season the curry with lemon juice to taste, then garnish with the roughly chopped fresh coriander. Serve immediately.
