    How to make Paneer Butter Masala Recipe ( 2 Type )

    Recreating popular restaurant style Punjabi dishes at home is my second obsession after eggless baking. Other than this I have already shared palak paneer, kadai paneer, dum aloo, khoya kaju, paneer lababdar, veg handi and so on.


    I will keep sharing rest till I make all of them. Before making this kind of dishes I refer cookbooks, Sanjeevji’s and Tarlaji’s website and I come up with the recipe or ingredients proportion which suits my taste. I do make couple of time, after making required changes I share it here. And trust me all of them tastes fantastic and delicious.

    INGREDIENTS
    To saute and grind into gravy:
    • Oil - 2 teaspoons
    • Onion - 1 cup or 1 medium, chopped roughly
    • Cashew nuts - 7-8 or 2 tablespoons broken
    • Tomato - 1 cup or 2 small, chopped
    • Turmeric powder - ⅛ teaspoon
    • Coriander powder - 1 ½ teaspoons

    • Cinnamon stick - ½ inch piece
    • Bay leaf - 1
    • Ginger paste or freshly grated - 1 teaspoon
    • Garlic paste or freshly grated - 1 teaspoon
    • Cardamom powder - ¼ teaspoon
    • kashmiri red chili powder - 2 to 3 teaspoons
    • Water - 1 cup
    • Paneer - 7 oz or 200 grams, cut into pieces
    • Kasoori methi (dried fenugreek leaves) - 1 teaspoon, crushed
    • Heavy whipping cream or malai - 3-4 tablespoons

    INSTRUCTIONS

    1. Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a pan on medium heat. Once hot add chopped onions, sprinkle some salt to speed up the process. Cook till onions are translucent and light brown in color.
    2. Add cashew nuts and saute for 2 minutes or till it is roasted and browned.
    3. Add chopped tomatoes and mix well. Cook till tomatoes are soft.
    4. Add turmeric powder, coriander powder and red chili powder.
    5. Mix well and cook for a minute. Turn off the stove, let it cool down a bit and make smooth paste into blender or grinder.
    6. Now wipe out the pan using paper napkin to clean it. In the same pan heat the butter and oil on medium heat.
    7. Add whole spices (cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and bay leaf). Saute for a minute or till you get nice aroma of spices.
    8. Add ginger and garlic paste. Cook for a minute or till the raw smell goes away.

    11. Then add water to make gravy consistency.
    12. Let it come to a boil and simmer for 3-4 minutes on low-medium heat.
