Tip 1
  • The first tip is to soak the cut paneer pieces in some warm to hot water.
  • I always soak my paneer cubes in warm water at the start of the dish and it remains in the warm water till I am ready to add it in the gravy.

  • This ensures that the paneer remains soft even after cooking.

Tip 2
  • Never over cook the paneer.
  • Make sure you add the paneer last. I always finish all the steps that I need to do in the dish and then add the paneer at the last.

  • I don't cook the paneer for more than 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, switch off the flame and cover the pan, the paneer will cook in the remaining heat and remain very soft.
  • Make sure you don't add the paneer and cook for 15 minutes, then will make it hard and rubbery.
These two small tricks will always give you a soft paneer even after cooking.
