One is a mixture of cooked onions with cashews, which imparts a unique creaminess to the Paneer Pasanda; and the other is a brown onion paste, which imparts a very rich and intense flavour to it. Ideal to be served at parties, the Paneer Pasanda is a wonderful accompaniment for all types of Indian breads as well as rice, especially the mildly flavoured ones.Preparation Time: 15 minutes.Cooking Time: 19 minutes.Serves 3. 1½ cups paneer (cottage cheese) cubes2 tbsp oil1 tsp chilli powder½ tsp garam masala1 cup whisked curds (dahi)Salt to tasteFor the onion-cashew paste1 cup roughly chopped onions5 garlic (lehsun) cloves1 small piece ginger (adrak)2 tbsp broken cashewnuts (kaju)For the brown onion paste1½ cups sliced onionsOil for deep-fryingFor the garnish1 tbsp finely chopped coriander (dhania)For the onion-cashew paste1.
