Assemble all ingredients together to avoid last minute rush.

Chop French beans and paneer into small pieces.

Finely chop onion and garlic cloves.

You can also use grated ginger in the recipe.

If tomato puree is not available, boil 1-2 tomatoes, peel off the skin and blend to the fine paste.

Heat 2 tbsp oil in a Pan or Kadai over medium flame and add 2 chopped garlic cloves. Saute for few minutes till raw aroma goes away.

Now, add 1 chopped onion in the Pan and fry the onions till translucent.

Then, add 1 tsp minced or grated garlic and ¼ cup tomato puree in the Pan. Mix with onions.

Add ¼ tsp coriander powder, ¼ tsp turmeric powder, 1 tsp salt and ½ tsp red chili powder. Saute till oil starts to separate from the masala.

After that, add 1.5 cups chopped french beans. Pick any – fresh or frozen! Just keep in mind, fresh would take longer to cook. Mix with masala.

Add 1 tsp kitchen king masala (optional).

Cover with the lid and cook until beans are done. Frozen beans may take 5-6 minutes and fresh beans may take 10-12 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Now, add 400 gms paneer cubes. Mix with the beans and cook for another 5 minutes.

Garnish with fresh coriander or cilantro.

Serve with roti or paratha.
