I love making Paneer recipes for my special meals. This gravy is a creamy, rich dish where Paneer cubes are simmered in an onion cashew nut based white gravy. . It can easily be made at home using simple ingredients and in 30 minutes.

Steps

1 hr

1

Fry whole spices,chopped onion, cashew nuts, ginger, and garlic paste in vegetable oil in a kadai. Then add water to boil and cook for 4-5 minutes on medium heat. Cool and grind to paste. Boiling the onion cooks them without changing the color of the final dish.
2

Heat oil and butter in the same kadai. Add the paste and stir well for few minutes till oil floats on top of the gravy. Add milk(or fresh cream) and stir well.
3

Add salt, sugar, yogurt whisked with flour and white pepper powder and cook for 2-3 minutes. Mixing some flour in the yogurt makes sure it doesn’t get split while cooking.
4

Now add paneer cubes, kasuri methi, and water and bring the curry to a boil. Cook for 2-3 minutes.Serve hot with paratha or naan.
