  • You can also add panner cubes in this just like in Kribha's baby corn paneer curry...

  • Add paneer just 1 minute before you put off the stove.
  • If you are adding paneer, immerse paneer cubes in hot water and just the moment you are going to add,drain the water and add it to korma..! Do not boil after u add paneer for more time,just bring to boil.
