Wash tomato, onion, and green chillies thoroughly. Finely chop tomato and onion and slice green chillies.

Heat mustard oil in a pan/karahi over medium heat. Add chopped onions, crushed ginger, garlic, and sliced green chillies. Sauté until onions turn golden brown.

Add chopped tomatoes to the pan. Cook until they turn soft and mushy.

Add turmeric powder, coriander powder, and salt to the pan and stir well. Add water to the pan and let it simmer.

Add the paneer cubes to the pan once the gravy starts to simmer and the oil separates. Cover the pan and let the curry simmer for five to seven minutes.

Add freshly ground garam masala and cover it for two minutes.

Garnish with freshly cut coriander leaves. Serve hot with roti or rice.
