1. Heat 1cm oil in a large frying pan and fry the paneer in batches until golden brown - watch out as the oil spits. Scoop it on to kitchen paper.
2. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan and gently fry the coriander seeds, ginger, chilli and onion for about 8- 10 minutes until golden. Tip in the tomatoes and cook for another 5 minutes until they start to soften. Add the other spices and honey, stir and simmer for a few minutes.
3. Tip the paneer into the sauce and stir. Simmer for a few minutes, then add the chopped coriander and shredded ginger. Serve sprinkled with peppers and spring onions.

  Fantastically tasty, the paneer is so versatile, although I would cut down the amount of red and green pepper you put on the top.

  I usually make sag paneer, but this was a great alternative. My family preferred slightly less honey.

  This was lovely. Good texture and tasted very fresh. 100% better than a takeway. I also added peas which made it even more colourful.

  This recipe was nice but I think I have heard of better recipes for a similar dish that makes the paneer taste better - I think the paneer would have benefited from cooking in the spices rather than in oil. I added spinach which works well.

  My boyfriend really enjoyed this but I found it a bit rich - I added peas as recommended by Frantic Flapjack and thought they added a good contrast.
