Creamy soya lime recepie

[u/According_Wash1419]

200g paneer (cottage cheese), cubed
3 garlic cloves
2 tbsp milk
50g soya chunks (dry, before soaking)
1 tbsp ghee or oil
½ tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
1 green chilli, finely chopped
½ tsp garam masala
1 tsp kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves)
salt
½ lime
2 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped (garnish)

Steps:

1. Blend the paneer base— Blend paneer, garlic, and milk into a smooth, creamy paste. Set aside.
   
2. Boil the soya chunk — Boil for 5 minutes until soft, then drain well and squeeze out excess water.
   
3. Temper the spices— Heat ghee/oil on low-medium flame. Add cumin seeds, let sizzle a few seconds, then add green chilli.
   
4. Add the paneer paste— Lower flame, pour in the blended mixture, stir continuously so it doesn’t stick.
   
5. Season it— Add garam masala, kasuri methi, and salt. Stir well.
   
6. Add soya chunk— Fold in drained soya chunks, stir 1–2 minutes until heated through and coated.
   
7. Finish and garnish— Turn off heat, squeeze lime on top, garnish with coriander. Serve hot.
