Start Paneer Butter Masala Recipe

For the paneer butter masala, I used 400 grammes of paneer, which I cut into large cubes. In a lovely white Kadai, I added 1 tablespoon of ghee and roughly 2 tablespoons of oil. When the oil was hot, I added the whole spices. a cinnamon stick couple of peppercorns one black and two green cardamoms four cloves Once adding three large, finely chopped onions and a half teaspoon of cumin seeds, sauté the onions for about two minutes before adding around five grated tomatoes. I’ll add about one and a half teaspoons of the ginger-garlic paste after the onions have acquired a wonderful golden brown colour.

After about five minutes of cooking, when the raw scent has subsided, add all of the spice powders, beginning with a quarter teaspoon of turmeric powder. 3 teaspoons red chilli powder, 1 teaspoon salt This is red chilli powder from Kashmir. 1 teaspoon dried coriander 1 teaspoon of ground cumin You can see the instant colour change after adding the Kashmiri red chilli powder, and now that the oil has started to separate, I’m going to add two teaspoons of besan or gramme flour. After about a minute, I’ll add two cups of water, and we’ll cook for approximately 10 minutes on medium heat.

I’m going to add a half teaspoon of salt and roughly a half teaspoon of sugar to balance the flavours since you can see the oil is starting to separate at this stage. I’m going to add the paneer chunks, and then I’m going to add one teaspoon of garam masala powder. I’ll gently stir it in, and then I’ll let it simmer on medium-low for about five minutes.

Wow, the paneer masala is coming together beautifully. After around five minutes, add some crushed Kasuri methi to complete the dish. Restaurant style paneer masala is now ready to be served, and it goes well with naan, phulkas, and chapatis.
