      Title: Paneer Bhurji (Scrambled Indian Cheese)
 Categories: Indian
      Yield: 2 Servings
 
      8 oz Paneer (250 g);
           - at room temperature
      1 sm Potato (very small); boiled
      4 tb Mustard oil
    1/3 c  Onions; finely chopped
      1 cl Garlic; finely chopped
    3/4 c  Tomatoes; finely chopped
      2    Thai green chiles; up to 3,
           - finely chopped,
           - adjust to tolerance
    1/4 ts Turmeric powder
           Fresh ginger (1/2"); minced
      1 ts Kasuri methi (dry fenugreek
           - leaves); heaping
    1/4 ts Garam masala
      1 pn Chaat masala (optional)
           Salt; to taste
      1 tb Fresh lime juice;
           - or to taste
           Fresh cilantro;
           - chopped, for garnish
 
  Note:
  
  You could add up some flavorful stock (up to 1/4 cup) to this recipe
  and simmer for few extra minutes if you feel that its on the dry
  side. This depends on how soft/watery your paneer variety is. You
  might or might not need it at all.
  
  Crumble up or roughly grate the paneer depending on how chunky you
  like it. I just use my fingers to break little bits. Set aside. Peel
  the boiled potato & finely grate it. Set aside
  
  In a medium saute pan/kadhai, heat up the oil. If using mustard oil,
  heat up until smoky & then let cool off for 2 minutes or so. Once the
  oil has cooled, on medium heat add the onions and garlic, saute
  until soft and starting to turn light brown, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  
  Add the tomatoes next along with the green chiles. Also add the
  turmeric powder and a pinch of salt. Cook until tomatoes soften and
  you see oil separating on the sides. About 3 to 5 minutes.
  
  Add the grated potato & ginger at this point along with kasuri methi.
  Stir thoroughly and cook for another 2 minutes. You will start
  smelling the aroma of ginger & methi.
  
  Lower the heat and add the crumbled paneer next along with salt to
  taste, garam masala & chaat masala, if using. Saute everything for
  another 1 to 2 minutes on low heat until the paneer just about
  softens, put the stove off. Add lemon juice and combine.
  
  Serve warm garnished with cilantro with bread slices or paratha.
