Instructions

Absolutely love Paneer Butter Masala! It’s a rich and creamy dish with paneer cooked in a luscious tomato and cashew-based gravy. Perfectly complemented by aromatic spices, this dish is a true delight for your taste buds. I highly recommend trying it with some butter naan or fragrant basmati rice for a truly satisfying and indulgent meal.
