Note
For dinner parties you could reheat the curry and give a tadka of butter and kashmiri chilli powder just for the color. Garnish with coriander leaves.To reduce heat from chillies, deseed green chillies before grinding them. That way you have the flavour of chillies with much less heat.
You can make this curry with only paneer too or a combination of paneer and carrots even.
