Replace the chicken with 400g of paneer cubes. Add the paneer in the last 5 minutes of cooking the gravy to prevent it from becoming chewy.

Substitute the cashew paste with a paste made from 2 tablespoons of melon seeds (magaz) or poppy seeds (khus khus).

For a slightly lighter version, you can use evaporated milk or a thick, full-fat yogurt (ensure it's not sour). Note that this will alter the final taste and richness of the gravy.
For a smooth gravy, ensure your onions are very finely chopped and your tomato puree is smooth. Most importantly, blend the soaked cashews into a very fine, lump-free paste before adding them to the curry.
