Paneer has been one of the favorites with the Royal families of India for
Centuries. This recipe is one of the delicious and yummy recipe and simple to
prepare. I used cashew paste and coconut milk for giving the gravy a lovely
creamy texture and richness. A blend of subtle spices used that make this
mouth-watering gravy absolutely irresistible. Make it for parties and get
together as a main dish because it is very rich dish. This single dish goes
with roti as well as pulao and make your meal a wonderful feast. A rich gravy
with mild taste with paneer and vegetables which definitely makes your guests
raise their brows.
