Paneer masala


Roadside entries in India are called dhabas. They have a very different style of cooking and their dishes are high in spices and oil.  Their taste is better than a big restaurant. This dhaba-style paneer masala is one of the dishes that I love a lot.


To make this paneer masala recipe, paneer cubes are simmered in an onion-tomato-based curry, with a few spices added to make it tastier. This Paneer Butter Masala recipe is a rich and creamy dish.


This paneer curry is protein rich and creamy to the brim.  This is served with parathas and naan.  I like it with cumin rice or a light veg pulao and leave it as you like.
