This Restaurant Style Paneer Tikka Masala is an extremely delicious, saucy and luscious in every bite. It’s super easy to make and you can freeze the cooked curry up to 2 weeks in an air-tight box.
This healthy vegetarian dinner is a creamy, saucy curry with paneer (if you’ve never had paneer, you’ll love it), and warm spices.
HOW TO MAKE PANEER TIKKA MASALA?
MARINATE PANEER IN SPICED YOGURT:
Marinate the paneer in yogurt and spices. The yogurt helps coat the paneer pieces with spices. When you pan fry the paneer, the yogurt forms a thin crust around the exterior.
PAN FRY THE PANEER:
You can do this step before or while you make the sauce. I usually pan fry the paneer first in batches with a tbsp of butter.
MAKE THE SAUCE:
- Add butter to the pan and add the Kitchen of India paneer tikka concentrate.
- Add a cup of water and bring to boil. Then simmer covered for 20 minutes with occasional stirring..
- Then add the cooked paneer and simmer for 5 mins and add a splash of heavy cream.
- Finally garnish with fresh cilantro and dish out.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS:
