Paneer Butter Masala

Marinating the Paneer In a bowl, combine yogurt, red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well. Add the paneer cubes and toss gently to coat them with the marinade. Set aside for 30 minutes.

Preparing the Gravy Heat butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until golden brown. Add ginger paste and garlic paste, and cook for a minute. Add the pureed tomatoes and cook until the oil separates from the gravy. Add red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix well and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the marinated paneer along with any remaining marinade. Stir gently to combine. Cook for another 5 minutes, until the gravy thickens. Add fresh cream and mix well. Cook for a minute. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves.
