How to make Courgette paneer
1) Place 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet and then add the onion and ginger and cook for about 3 minutes. Add the spices and toast for 10 seconds. Add the tomatoes, courgette and water and cook until the courgette is tender, about 10 minutes. Add the garam masala and cover with a lid.
2) Meanwhile, heat a non-stick pan over a medium heat and add 1 tbsp oil. Fry the paneer cubes until golden brown. Add to the courgette during the last 2 minutes of cooking, along with the coriander, and stir well. Season with salt. Serve with rice or plain rotis.
