Paneer Butter Masala

Paneer Butter Masala

Everyday

Paneer Butter Masala is a classic North Indian curry featuring cubes of paneer (a fresh, non-melting cheese) simmered in a rich, aromatic sauce of tomatoes, cream, and butter. The dish derives its signature velvety texture from dairy fats and its complex flavor from spices like garam masala, cumin, and fenugreek leaves. While high in protein from the paneer, it is also calorie-dense due to its heavy cream and butter content, making portion awareness key for nutritional tracking.
