    Jagriti ShuklaBy Jagriti ShuklaMarch 21, 20234 Mins Read

    A delicious rich butter-based paneer dish, cooked in a creamy, milk gravy with the goodness of tomato and onion. Succulent paneer chunks pan-fried in butter and simmered with spices, milk, and cream along with cashew nuts to make a delicious dish to feast. The near-perfect combination of spiciness and creaminess of its gravy makes it simply irresistible and versatile to be served with any Indian bread.

    It is a popular Punjabi cuisine that is made from lots of butter with spicy and creamy gravy. It has a mild sweet taste and pairs beautifully with garlic naan and jeera rice. It has thick creamy gravy for the thickness it has cashews and almonds and for the creamy texture, it has the richness of cream and milk in the gravy. This recipe does not need a lot of spices. A bit of garam masala and cardamom powder is plenty.

The dish is characterized by rich and aromatic gravy. It is one of the most ordered dishes in Indian restaurants and has gained much popularity throughout the world.
