Very nice, Char. Some changes that I made: I omitted the charmagaj paste (didn't have it, but I don't even know what it is), and I added some cumin powder. I also didn't boil the onion but just sauteed it directly in the pan and pureed it along with the tomato when done. After that I followed the instructions and it worked just fine. Been ages since I made fresh paneer at home, and this was a really good dish to use it in.
