Paneer in Tomato Puree

This is a recipe from a friend. I never measure when I cook , so everything is an approximation. You can adjust the ingredients according to your taste . I am yet to see a quicker and easier recipe ( Good for those lazy days ) made with hardly any effort.

400 gms paneer cut into cubes

3/4 can tomato puree or tomato paste

2 Tbsp cream

6 to 7 gralic cloves crushed

1 tsp chilli powder

2 Tbsp kasoori methi

1.5 tsp oil

salt as required

In a pan heat the oil and put in the crushed garlic cloves . let it cook . Do not let the garlic brown. Now add the tomato puree.If it is too thick add some water and dilute it. Into it add the chilli powder and kasoori methi and salt. Let this cook for some time. Now add the paneer. If you are fond of fried paneer you can use fried paneer. Cook this again for 2 to 3 mts. Now add the cream and mix it well . This can be had with roti or nan.
