Mirch Masala

Usually I make paneer butter masala, by grinding the onions with some spices, then for the tomato base, I blanch the tomatoes and grind them again with some spices. Marinate and fry the paneer, sometimes. And there is always the cashew paste that goes in with the cream. In this version, I skip all of these steps. I just grated the onion directly into the pan, added readymade tomato paste and just the cream and it still tastes as good as the original one :) If you don't believe me, you can go ahead and try this!
