Today we are going to see a delicious South Indian style paneer kurma made with a combination of all the spices. A perfect kurma that you can pair with dosa, chapathi, rice, poori and other tiffin items.  My search for gravy, especially kurma varieties, has been my long-time interest. More than dry curry, I prefer kurma varieties and explore different options. Also, I like to prepare kurma to pair it with different tiffin or rice dishes. This paneer kurma is also one such recipe. The coconut oil, coconut, fennel, cumin, red chillies, coriander seeds and whole garam masala make this kurma lip-smackingly yummy and a perfect rich kurma. You can very well make this kurma with mushroom, cauliflower, soya chunks or mixed vegetables.  Similar Recipes Green Peas and Paneer Gravy  Paneer Butter Masala   Paneer Methi Masala Shahi Gobi Masala Broccoli Masala Rajma Masala   Mushroom Butter Masala Easy Chana Masala  Easy Moth Dal Sabji   Green Peas Masala...

Vegetable Salna - another interesting gravy recipe with mixed vegetables. Salna can be made with any combination of vegetables. The common choices are carrots, beans, potatoes, cauliflower and green peas etc. You can also skip any one of the mentioned vegetables to make the salna. For kurma or salna I believe that using the right techniques and fresh ingredients can bring the ultimate taste. Enjoy this vegetable salna with parotta, chapathi, dosa and brinji. If you like a thin gravy with masalas, then you will surely enjoy this vegetable salna. It is definitely easy to make but you have to plan ahead for the chopping and grinding works.

Today we are going to see our all time favourite Chana Masala. It's a simple yet complete food that's easy to make within 30 minutes. I got this recipe from our friend's mom who is from Bodi. The flavours are just delicious. She gave me one kg of her homemade garamasala powder and it is one of our new favourites! The garamasala powder is free from the addition of preservatives, artificial colours and mono sodium glutamate. Any masalas or kurmas made with a unique blend of spices, tastes good. I have been trying to make my own garamasala powder but just keep putting it off. Now I am confident to prepare homemade garamasala powder as she clearly explained the recipe with exact ingredients and measurements. I will try posting the homemade garamasala recipe in virundhombal soon. During our visit to their house, she prepared so many dishes and all of them were lip smacking and the masalas were perfectly balanced, not overpowering the other.  This Chana masala is not the authenti...

This easy paneer gravy is a mouthwatering side dish made with paneer cooked in a rich gravy prepared with  onions, tomatoes and other spices. It's mild and not very spicy, which tastes so good with chapathi, nann, roti and pulao.  Paneer gravies can be made in a variety of ways. This recipe is the easy version of paneer butter masala. Most of the time we prepare paneer gravy with fresh cream, butter and cashew nuts. To make a tasty paneer masala, you do not need fresh cream. You can easily make restaurant style paneer gravy with easily available ingredients in your kitchen. I always like to add a few cashew nuts while making gravies, which gives a creamy consistency. The addition of dried kasuri methi leaves gives a unique flavour for paneer based gravies. I used homemade garamasala powder for gravies which does not include red chillies or pepper in it. Add garamasala powder to your personal taste preferences.Now let's see how to prepare this easy paneer gravy with step by ste...
