Haldirams Paneer Makhani

Paneer Makhani, also known as Paneer Butter Masala, is a popular North Indian dish that features paneer (Indian cottage cheese) cooked in a rich and creamy tomato-based gravy. It is a flavorful and indulgent vegetarian dish. Here's a recipe for Paneer Makhani:

Ingredients:

• 200 grams paneer, cut into cubes
• 2 tablespoons ghee (clarified butter) or oil
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 2 teaspoons ginger-garlic paste
• 2 large tomatoes, pureed
• 1/4 cup cashew nuts, soaked in warm water for 15 minutes (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 1 teaspoon kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves)
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• Salt to taste
• Fresh cilantro (coriander) leaves for garnishing

Instructions:

1. Heat ghee or oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.
2. Add the ginger-garlic paste and cook for another minute until the raw smell disappears.
3. Add the tomato puree and cook for about 5-6 minutes until the oil starts to separate from the sides of the pan.
4. Meanwhile, if using cashew nuts, grind them into a smooth paste using a blender or food processor.
5. Add the cashew nut paste (if using) to the tomato-onion mixture and cook for a few more minutes.
6. Add red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix well and cook for a couple of minutes.
7. Add water as needed to achieve the desired consistency of the gravy. Simmer for 5-6 minutes.
8. Add the paneer cubes to the gravy and gently mix to coat them with the sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes to allow the paneer to absorb the flavors.

11. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves.
