Utterly Butterly Paneer !

Paneer Makhanwala,cottage cheese,paneer makhani,kasoori methi


A simple dish ready in minutes,and tastes like the dhabe wala paneer!

This dish has no garam Masala's ,the only strong flavor being that of green 
cardamom.Its a simple dish and the kids just love it when made non-spicy .
But i made it spicy this time!

Ingredients :

250 gms Paneer (cottage cheese)
2 tomatoes chopped in fat chunks
2 medium sized sliced onions 
4 garlic flakes (do not chop)
2 inch piece of ginger
2 green cardamoms 
1 tsp red chilly powder
salt
1/2 cup milk
Butter

Method:
Cut the paneer in small pieces n soak it in milk n keep aside.Heat some butter 
+ 1 tsp of oil in a kadai  (pan).Add the onions n saute till translucent n pink
 (do not let it turn brown).Now add the ginger, whole garlic flakes n tomatoes.
Mix in the salt n red chilly powder n saute till the tomatoes are well done.
Take off heat n let this masala cool a bit. Now grind it to a paste along with the 
Green cardamoms .Saute this paste for two minutes n now add in the paneer 
along with milk n let it simmer for 5- minutes .Garnish with kasoori methi n 
enjoy!!U can add in cream as well if u wish to..
