- 250g paneer, cubed
- 1 large ripe mango, peeled and diced
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-inch piece ginger, grated
- 1 green chili, slit
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- Salt to taste
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons fresh coriander leaves, chopped

Instructions
1. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds until fragrant.
2. Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown.
3. Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and green chili. Sauté for another minute.
4. Add the turmeric powder, red chili powder, and garam masala. Stir well to combine the spices with the onion mixture.
5. Add the diced mango and cook for about 3-4 minutes until the mango softens slightly.
6. Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a gentle simmer.
7. Carefully add the paneer cubes, ensuring they are well-coated with the mango masala sauce. Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the paneer to absorb the flavors.
