I love this style of Shahi Paneer- Paneer with white gravy with a hint of Garam masala, Kesar and kewra. I have only added cashew nuts if you wish you can add magaz and khus khus too.
If you don't want white pale gravy like me 😃 then you can add some turmeric and chilli powder. The Curd or yoghurt also adds richness and little tanginess to the gravy so I have not used tomato...if you want to add. . boil and puree the tomatoes and then add ....it will give you a rich smooth silky gravy...we love without it....it is one of our favourite Paneer dish !!!
