•     2 finely chopped green chillies

•     2 tsp coriander powder
•     1/2 tsp turmeric powder

•     2 tbsp oil
•     100 gm  paneer (optional)
•     a few sprigs of cilantro/coriander leaves chopped
•     salt as per taste

Instructions

In a thick bottomed pan, heat oil.
Add cumin seeds. Once they splutter, add the chopped onions.
Fry the onions till they become soft and pinkish.
Add the ginger-garlic paste. Fry for a minute.
Add the tomatoes. Keep on stirring till the tomatoes become soft and pulpy. When the mixture becomes    smooth then you can add all the spice powders.
The process of frying the tomatoes takes a little longer. Fry the tomatoes on a low flame as you don’t want the tomatoes to get burnt.
Now add all the spice powders. Stir the spice powders with the onion-tomato mixture. Add the finely chopped green chillies.
Mix in the chopped veggies, salt and water. Once the veggies are semi cooked…… that is they are half cooked. Add the cream. Give a stir.
Cover again and simmer the veggies till they are done. Don’t forget to check the veggies after every 3-4 minutes. Add more water if the water dries up and if the veggies are still to be cooked.
If using paneer, then add the paneer once the veggies are cooked. Simmer without the lid for 2 minutes.
You can also garnish with fried paneer cubes. Otherwise simply garnish with chopped coriander leaves. Serve it with parathas, kulcha or chapatis.
