This is a classic, rich, dry, Indian
curry made with Paneer cheese and peas. The dish itself is served in a sauce that's almost dry in consistency.
Method:
Heat the oil in a wok or deep frying pan and add the ginger and chopped tomatoes. Stir-fry for 2 minutes then add the ground tomato. Cook, stirring all the while, until the tomatoes break down to form a sauce then stir-in the ghee. Crack the cardamom pods in a pestle and mortar then add to the sauce and cook for 2 minutes. Then add the sugar, chilli powder and garam masala before seasoning with salt and black pepper.
Stir to mix thoroughly then add the tomato purée, the ground cashew nuts and 60ml water. Bring the mixture to a boil and continue boiling for 5 minutes before adding the paneer and milk. Bring to a simmer then continue cooking until the sauce thickens. Stir in the cream and serve with roti (Indian flatbread).
