Method of Preparation

Step 1: Prepare the Gravy Base

Dilute the Sunbay Yellow Gravy Base with an equal quantity of water and mix until smooth and lump-free.

Step 2: Prepare the Tempering

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and allow them to crackle.

Step 3: Build the Masala

Add the chopped ginger, garlic, green chillies, onion, and Sunbay Onion Tomato Masala. Sauté until aromatic and the onions become soft.

Step 4: Add the Spices

Mix in the Kashmiri red chilli powder, coriander powder, garam masala, and salt. Stir well to combine.

Step 5: Add the Vegetables and Paneer

Add the boiled mixed vegetables and paneer cubes. Toss gently until they are evenly coated with the masala.

Pour in the prepared Sunbay Yellow Gravy Base and mix thoroughly. Simmer on low heat for 5–6 minutes, allowing the vegetables and paneer to absorb the rich flavors.

Step 7: Finish & Serve

Stir in the fresh cream, garnish with chopped fresh coriander, and serve hot.
