Method:
Add the paneer into a large bowl & add salt, black pepper, ginger garlic paste & lemon juice, mix well to apply all the ingredients to the paneer.
Shallow fry the paneer cubes in a pan using some oil until it turns light golden brown from both sides & transfer it into a bowl, set it aside until you prepare the gravy.
Set a pan over high heat, add oil & let it heat up.
Add all the whole spices followed by the onions, ginger, garlic, green chilli, cashews & salt, stir well & cook over high flame until the onions turn soft.
Add hot water, cover the pan & cook over medium flame for 4-5 minutes, then switch off the flame & discard the whole spices (cinnamon & bay leaf), let the mixture cool down completely.
Add the mixture into a mixer grinder jar along with curd, mint, fresh coriander & all the powdered spices & grind it into a smooth puree.
Set a kadhai over high heat, add oil & butter, let it get hot.
Further add asafoetida along with the prepared gravy, stir well & bring it to a boil then lower the flame & let the gravy simmer for 2-3 minutes.
You can add hot water at this stage if the gravy has become too thick, its consistency should be semi-thick.
Taste & adjust salt if required & lastly add sugar, black pepper, kasuri methi & the paneer, stir well & cook for 1-2 minutes.
Your delicious, rich & creamy paneer afghani is ready, serve it with tandoori roti or any Indian bread of your choice.
