Creamy Paneer Curry...

Here's a delightfully creamy and easy Paneer recipe. I usually buy the Hatsun brand Paneer... among all the brands available here, I find they are the best. So if you like Paneer, try this out sometime...

Heat a little oil and fry sliced onions with ginger and garlic paste till the onions turn translucent.

Drop in some chopped tomatoes and fry for a few more minutes.

Add appropriate quantity of chillie, coriander, turmeric and jeera powder.

Mix it up and let it fry for a few minutes... 

After the onion tomato masala mixture has cooled down, grind it with a little water to make a smooth paste.

Chop your paneer into the required size and shallow fry them in a little oil, till they turn slightly brown at the edges.

After frying them drop them in a little warm water, so that they remain soft and succulent. 

In a vessel, add the ground masala paste along with the paneer (any other vegetable like potatoes, peas or capsicum can be added too). Mix it up well, add salt and appropriate quantity of water then let the dish simmer for a few minutes.

After a few minutes of cooking the paneer in the masala curry, add some fresh cream. Milk can be used if fresh cream is not available. Give it a mix and simmer for a few minutes, till the cream is well incorporated into the curry.

By now you'll have a nice creamy curry, sprinkle garam masala over the top and cook for a few more minutes... 

That's it, add a blob of butter just before serving... I hope you enjoy the dish.

Nice Ad....

Wouldn't you say so... Nam and me were in this huge clothing store and we were making fun of all the models on display (there was one of hrithik in which he looked kinda gayish) when we came across this one. Seriously, dark people are more better looking....

Amethyst in Chennai - A Review

After Sarangi , we stopped by Amethyst another boutique store at Whites Road (quite close to Express Avenue Mall), Royapettah. This is a cool posh place hidden from the bustling din of the main road, and the entry way itself seems to transport you to another time and place far away from the cacophony of a busy city life. Once you step into this land overflowing with (wild) shrubbery, you'll find a flower shop, a jewellery cum clothing store and a colonial styled coffee hangout place. The entrance... with shrubs on either side. A giant urn among the shrubbery.  A little fountain in the garden... The jewellery and clothing boutique is located upstairs and even though the whole arrangement looks nice and inviting, I couldn't really find anything worth buying here.   An art piece at the store... The clothes seemed drab and messily complicated, like some new age fashion for the artsy / socialite types. It's not something your normal next door perso...

My school teachers...

So I got to thinking bout my school days recently and it saddened me that I was starting to forget a few teachers who had shaped my life, I have already forgotten nearly half the classmates... though its not my fault. Some people just don't want to join facebook, then how can you find them in this big world. Even if I do find them, there is not much to talk beyond the 'where are you & what are you doing' phrases. But the teachers are another matter, they deserve to be remembered for moulding us. I gotta hand it to the convent school I studied in, they really knew how to select their educators... all the teachers I had shared a genuine passion for teaching and above that they had strong moral values and faith which invariably shaped our lives. To them being a good person was what mattered the most and they made sure we grasped this knowledge, it also helped that I had staunch catholic parents who cemented this view. Anyway, I just wanted to jot down stuff bout my teacher...
