Method
Mix the things given under "to marinate". Add the paneer cubes, toss it and keep it in the refrigerator for at least an hour. ( I did over-night marination)

Chop the onion-capsicum into big chunks.
Grind the tomatoes into a fine paste.
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan, shallow fry the marinated paneer and keep it aside.

Add another tablespoon of oil in the same pan, add the cumin seeds. Let it splutter.
Now add in the onion chunks, fry for a minute, then add the tomato purée.
Add the turmeric-chilli and coriander powders, cook for 5 minutes on low heat.
Add in the capsicum chunks, give it a nice stir and continue cooking.
Now add 11/4cups of water and let it boil.

After the oil oozes out from the gravy, add in the fried paneer cubes, along with sugar. Reduce the heat to low and cook for few more minutes.
Garnish with cilantro and put off the flame.
Delicious Capsicum-paneer curry is ready. Goes well with Zeera rice-Roti-Naan &Parota.
