paneer butter masala paneer butter masala recipe with video and detailed instructions- paneer butter masala is one of the most popular restaurant favorites in India and around the world. the curry is made with  Cubed paneer (indian cottage cheese) and is cooked in a onion, tomato and cashew base.  Its a rich creamy sauce and is absolutely finger liking good. Its a great side dish that can be served with Nan ( the Indian flat bread), whole wheat chapathi, plain rice or jeera rice (cumin rice). As the name suggests to make the paneer butter masala, we use butter in the dish.  To make it tad bit healthy, I prefer using a combination of both butter and oil. Also, i go easy on heavy cream, i don’t prefer adding too much of it. If you do not have cream, milk is a great substitute for heavy cream. If you want to make it vegan, substitute paneer with tofu and replace the cream/milk with coconut milk. Paneer is the Indian cheese, and the paneer dishes are extremely popular in the Indian cuisine. In addition to the paneer butter masala recipe, some of the other popular paneer dishes are palak panner, shahi paneer, kadai paneer and panner tikka masala In addition to paneer butter masala, I have some more side gravy’s in the blog. Do check out my tofu no butter masala, paneer mushroom masala, tofu masala curry , matar palak tofu. Few tips before making the curry- If using frozen paneer, bring the paneer to room temperature. You can also cook the paneer in hot water for few minutes. You can also pan fry the paneer before adding in the gravy. Cashew nuts give a nice richness to the curry, but can also try using almonds. Soak the almonds in hot water, peel the skin and use it. Cream can be replaced with regular milk or coconut milk. Fenugreek leaves have s strong pungent smell, but is a key ingredient in the recipe.   paneer butter masala paneer butter masala video recipe–   paneer butter masala recipe- paneer butter masala | how to make easy paneer butter masala   Save Print Prep time Cook time Total time   paneer butter masala- is a favourite north indian curry served with nan, chapathi, rice or jeera rice.
