Hi, Good Morning. Thank you, friends and viewers. Today I will post how to make paneer butter masala recipe.
Paneer Butter Masala is a Punjabi Cuisine. Paneer cooked in butter and rich creamy gravy with all added spices. My most favorite North Indian dish is Paneer Butter Masala. Given a chance, whenever we go out for dinner, I always prefer paneer butter masala with butter naan.
I tried this recipe in different ways, once I chopped tomatoes and onions and then cooked and then added paneer and masalas. Once I made the paste of tomatoes only, onions added to them and then added paneer. A lot of research has been done on this recipe like I asked some of my North Indian friends and searched different recipe sites and finally made it. Lastly, I ended up in making it the way I am presenting it now. So many recipe sites also given the recipe in this way only.
For this, I prepare everything a day before and keep them ready. Tomato puree, onion Puree and also cashew nuts puree. At the time making this dish I just fry all of them and cook for five minutes and then add paneer cook for three more minutes. That's it!! paneer butter masala ready to serve.
I already posted recipes with paneer like paneer65, paneer tikka, paneer bhurji. Check out for more paneer recipes here.
