8 ounces tomato sauce
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon cream cheese
1 tablespoon margarine
1 dash salt and pepper
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 cup cubed panir (or tofu)
1/4 cup raisins (regular or white grape)

Bring tomato sauce to a simmer over medium heat, and blend in chopped onions, cream cheese, butter, and salt and pepper.

Once onions are tender, add chilli powder and garam masala. Adjust amounts to taste. Garam masala is a potent spice, however it is not hot. For extra spiciness increase the amount of chilli powder.

Serve over white or jasmine rice. Garnish with extra raisins and almonds.
