This is a very famous dish or gravy from the state of Punjab.It is rich and creamy in texture and goes well with any bread. Let it be phulkas, tandoori roti or naan. Here I have tried making the traditional gravy in a very easy way, in my style as it is cooked in a simple method,with a few ingredients and masalas.This was loved by my family a lot. Hope I have done justice to the dish.
