You can cut down on calories by using tofu paneer or paneer made from skimmed milk. The ghee is not required and can be substituted with 3 tbsps on sunflower oil. If you make this in a non stick pan instead of a heavy bottomed vessel, you can use just one 1 tsp of oil.

Why have I included a high calorie version? Becase this is what you will get when you order a kadai paneer in a restaurant. As a rule of thumb your serving with 5 pieces of paneer, each the size of regular dice will contain these calories
