Heat oil in a pan. Add the chopped onions. Sauté the onions for about 1 to 2 mins. Add tomatoes and cook over a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes. 


Lower the flame and add turmeric powder.  Mix and stir fry for a minute or two.


Add the crumbled cottage cheese, cream, or milk and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes. Add the green chilis and kasoori methi leaves. Give it a good mix. 


Milk gives a slightly moist and creamy texture to the paneer. Do not overcook as the paneer will turn rubbery and grainy.



Serve paneer bhurji with hot pulkas or paratha and enjoy.
