Peel and dice the potatoes into medium-sized cubes. Rinse them thoroughly and set aside.
Dice the onion and chop the tomatoes and green chilies finely.
Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and allow them to sizzle for about 30 seconds.
Add the ginger and garlic paste, and sauté for about a minute until the raw smell fades.
Add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.
Stir in the green chilies, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well.
Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan and cook until they soften and the oil starts to separate from the mixture.
Add the diced potatoes and mix to coat them well with the spices. Cover and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Add the chickpeas and cubed paneer, then pour in the water. Stir well and cover the pan to let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
Uncover the pan, sprinkle garam masala over the sabji, and mix gently.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.
