So here’s the thing with paneer butter masala – if you are a paneer lover, it is the king of all paneer recipes. I’ve eaten versions of this across the length and breadth of the country (favourite order obviously) and a lot of people can get it very very wrong.

Here’s what a good paneer butter masala or paneer makhani will taste like:

  • Luscious gravy thats tomato based and has a natural sweetness with a slight tang
  • A mild underlying smokiness that comes from smoking the gravy before adding the paneer
  • Really soft paneer that’s NOT fried and is soft mainly because its primarily made from Malai (Cream) or really good quality milk

And here’s what it’s NOT –> Sweet! A lot of restaurants like to add sugar to the gravy. This is also the norm outside India, but good paneer butter masala is not sweet. So stay away from the fake ones!

And today, we are cracking open all the secrets to amazing Paneer Butter Masala with the smokiness, the creaminess and the perfection.
