METHOD
Take oil in a pan and roast all the spices till brown..the essence of Chettinad curry is its dark colour.so roast spices till brown but dont burn it..take it out and keep aside.add in the grated coconut and also fry that till brown..take it out and grind all with garlic cloves and ginger.make it into a fine paste but dont add much water..water is ok if u make this gravy with chicken but fr veg keep less water when grinding.
Take oil.add in mustard..sliced shallots and karipatta and fry nicely..when slightly brown add in the ground paste and fry..when fried nicely and oil leaves the sides add in cubed paneer and mix it delicately..when its cooked mix in salt. Coconut essence..lemon juice and corriander leaves..enjoy
Being a south indian i prefer cooking typical south Indian curries in coconut oil..it takes curries to another level😋😋😋♥️
