2) Now coat the paneer slices with the masala and keep it aside for 10 minutes. After 10 mins take one slice of the paneer and press grated cheese on it. Now cover it with another paneer slice. Make a cheesy paneer sandwich with two slices. Make all paneer sandwiches this way.
3) In a grill pan or non stick tawa brush some ghee/clarified butter and grill all the cheese paneer sandwiches as made above from both sides.

For gravy:
1) In a bowl take water and boil together the tomatoes, onions, garlic, ginger and peanuts. Once they are cooked strain and make a puree.
2) In a wok take oil and ghee and let it become warm. Now add the chopped garlic, clove, cinnamon and star anise and let it become golden brown now add the capsicum and saute for few minutes. Then add the onions and saute till slightly pink. Keep it crunchy do not overcook.
3) Now add the tomato puree as prepared in step 1 above and add the red chilli powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala powder, tomato ketchup, salt and grated cheese. Now mix it all and add water if the gravy feels thick. Let it cook for 5 mins.
