Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium. Add 1 chopped onion and 3 minced garlic cloves; cook until soft and golden, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add 2 chopped tomatoes and 2 tbsp cashews; cook until tomatoes break down and turn mushy, about 5 minutes. Stir in 1 tsp garam masala and salt to taste.
Step 3
Transfer the mixture to a blender, add 1/4 cup water, and blend until smooth. Return the sauce to the skillet.
Step 4
Add 8 oz paneer cubes to the sauce; simmer gently until paneer is heated through and sauce thickens, about 3 minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
