For 4 servings
In a bowl, whisk the yogurt until smooth. Add the besan, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and coriander powder. Mix well to form a smooth, lump-free paste and set aside.
Heat oil in a pan or kadai over medium heat. Add cumin seeds, fennel seeds, and asafoetida, letting them splutter for about 30 seconds. Add the sliced onions and sauté until golden brown, about 6-7 minutes. Then, add the ginger-garlic paste and slit green chillies and sauté for another minute.
Add the chopped tomato and cook until soft and mushy, about 4-5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and slowly pour in the yogurt-spice mixture, stirring continuously to prevent curdling. Continue to cook on low heat until oil begins to separate from the masala, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the cubed potatoes and salt, mixing well to coat. Pour in 1 cup of water, stir, and bring to a gentle boil. Cover the pan and simmer on low-medium heat for 10-12 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Gently stir in the paneer and tofu cubes. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle with garam masala and crushed kasuri methi, and give it a final gentle stir. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.
